Independent global renewable energy power producer and developer Akuo announced the activation of three wind power plants in Poland, in partnership with Mirova, an investment management company 100% devoted to sustainable investment and an affiliate of Natixis Investment Managers, to mark the inauguration of the Wielowies power plant. The inauguration took place in the presence of Frederic Billet, Ambassador of the French Republic in Poland, Ginter Skowronek, Mayor of Wielowies, Patrice Lucas, CEO of Akuo, and Fabien Villacampa, Investment Director at Mirova.The three plants’ production will cover the electricity needs of almost 200,000 homes while cutting CO2 emissions by some 300,000 metric tons per year. With an aggregate capacity of 132 MW, these three wind power plants will help the Polish government to reach its targets in terms of reducing the share of coal in the country’s electricity production. They will also contribute to its goal of increasing the share of renewables in its energy mix to 27% by 2040, as required by EU law. These new plants thus take the Akuo Group's installed electricity capacity in the Central-Eastern Europe region to over 300 MW.
