The French Directorate General for Energy and Climate (DGEC) opened a public consultation on proposals for the AO10 offshore wind call for tenders, covering 8.4–9.2 GW including a floating wind project of around 1.2 GW on the South Atlantic coast corresponding to the AO10 Sud‑Atlantique zone. The consultation, which runs until 4 April 2025, seeks stakeholder input on plot configuration (single 2 GW vs. two ~1 GW projects with shared connection), locations, commissioning targets, overall timelines, and safeguards to prevent a single bidder from winning all tenders, ahead of launching the competitive procedure and awarding projects by the end of 2026.
