Voltalia: contract to sell electricity to CERN

(CercleFinance.com) - Voltalia announces the signing of an electricity sales contract for the production of two solar farms under development in France.


CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), an internationally renowned scientific organization specializing in fundamental physics, and Voltalia have signed two Corporate PPAs.

CERN's commitments to purchase renewable electricity will prevent the emission of 8,775 tonnes of CO2 per year thanks to Voltalia's solar power plants.

Under the terms of the Corporate PPAs, CERN will purchase the production of two solar power plants with a combined capacity of 26.8 megawatts, currently under development in the south of France, for a period of 15 years. The cumulative production of these two plants will be equivalent to the consumption of 19,400 inhabitants.

Sébastien Clerc, Chief Executive Officer of Voltalia, comments: "Our two photovoltaic projects will make a concrete contribution to CERN's efforts to protect the environment through the production of competitive, low-carbon energy.
