France's latest onshore wind auction heavily oversubscribed, with repowering projects taking majority of capacity
Repowering projects accounted for the majority of capacity awarded in France's most recent onshore wind CfD auction, which was heavily oversubscribed, Windpower Monthly reports. The result signals strong developer appetite for repowering over greenfield development in the French market, likely reflecting faster permitting and lower site-risk for existing infrastructure. Asset managers with legacy French onshore wind portfolios should note that repowering is now a competitive, auction-supported pathway. The oversubscription also suggests French onshore auction volumes may need to increase to clear market demand.
