On the occasion of the Colloque National de France Renouvelables, taking place in Paris on 7 and 8 October (1), VSB France looks back on 25 years of company development. Since its foundation in 2001, the company has built around 60 wind farms and developed approximately 30 photovoltaic plants across France.

On the occasion of its participation in the third edition of the Rencontres de l’Agrivoltaïsme, VSB France, a power producer, is publishing its first Agrivoltaics Co-Activity Charter and reaffirming its ambition to achieve an equal balance of new projects under development across its two core renewable energy technologies.

TotalEnergies is reorganizing its power business in Germany and will bring its activities together under “Integrated Power Germany”. The new business unit will more closely integrate its affiliated subsidiaries QUADRA energy Sales & Origination, Kyon Energy and VSB as well as TotalEnergies’ offshore wind activities in Germany.

VSB is developing an 8 MWp ground-mounted photovoltaic system on the premises of thyssenkrupp Rasselstein GmbH. The project will be delivered by VSB Integrated Energy Solutions, the VSB Group subsidiary specialising in energy solutions for commercial and industrial customers. The long-term on-site PPA covers financing, planning, construction and operation.

With the commissioning of the second wind turbine, VSB Germany has completed the expansion of the Vockenrod wind farm as planned. The site now comprises a total of five turbines generating climate-friendly electricity and making a further contribution to the expansion of renewable energy in the German state of Hesse.

Five older wind turbines are being replaced by four modern units, yet electricity generation will increase significantly. At the Les Vents Meuse Sud wind farm in Saint-Aubin-sur-Aire, the dismantling of the existing turbines has now been completed. VSB France is now installing four Nordex N117 turbines with a total capacity of 12 megawatts. Commissioning is scheduled for early 2027.
