EDF Energies Nouvelles is today inaugurating a new maintenance center in Villeveyrac in the Occitanie region, via its subsidiary dedicated to this activity, EDF EN Services.
This new location has enabled the creation of eight local jobs that cannot be relocated.

The Villeveyrac operation-maintenance antenna is intended to facilitate the interventions necessary to optimize the performance of nearby wind turbines.

Made up of 31 wind turbines, the installation is located in the territory of the Montagne de la Moure in the territories of the agglomeration community of Bassin de Thau and the community of commune of Vallée de l'Hérault.

With an installed capacity of 62 MW, the wind farm generates the equivalent of the annual electricity consumption of 68,000 inhabitants.

The Villeveyrac branch is the fourth Occitan maintenance center of EDF EN Services.

This new location employs eight full-time people, including seven maintenance technicians supervised by a zone manager.

To date, EDF Energies Nouvelles employs 220 people in the Occitanie region, 134 of whom are responsible for operation and maintenance.

The company has installed more than 500 MW of wind capacity in the region.
