French nuclear giant EDF unveils first wind and battery project in Australia

3 May 2021
The French nuclear energy giant EDF has unveiled its first renewable energy project in Australia, a wind farm in Queensland that also has planning approval for battery storage.
The majority French government owned EDF, through its EDF Renewables subsidiary, has been quietly building a portfolio of wind, energy and battery storage projects in Australia as part of its global efforts to more than double its renewable energy capacity and pipeline from 28,000 megawatts now to 60,000 megawatts by 2030. That would be equivalent, in capacity terms, to the nuclear fleet it owns and operates in France.
The first of these Australian renewable projects has now been named – the 280MW Banana Range wind project in Queensland that it has purchased from Goldwind Australia and Lacour Energy.
