Golfe de Gascogne Sud was dropped from the AO10 cohort when the final cahier des charges rectificatif vCRE was published on 21 April 2026. The cahier limits the merged AO10 / Procédure de Mise en Concurrence n°1/2026 to 11 projects in Normandie (Fécamp Grand Large, 3 lots), Bretagne (Bretagne Nord Ouest and Bretagne-Sud 2), Charente-Maritime (Oléron 1), and Golfe du Lion (3 lots) plus the ex-AO9 Mediterranean floating sites Narbonnaise Sud-Hérault 2 and Golfe de Fos 2. Golfe de Gascogne Sud (Bay of Biscay) is not in this list and has no near-term path to award; the site is now on hold pending inclusion in AO11 or another successor procedure under PPE3.
