GE Renewable Energy has inaugurated the logistics hub for the 480MW Saint-Nazaire offshore wind farm off France at the Nantes-Saint-Nazaire Port.
The inauguration was attended by French Prime Minister Jean Castex, accompanied by Mrs Barbara Pompili, Minister of the Ecological Transition, and Mrs Agnès Pannier-Runacher, Delegate Minister of the Minister of the Economy in charge of the industry.
Saint-Nazaire will comprise 80 GE Haliade 150-6MW turbines.
