Following the national public debate on maritime planning, the French government’s ministerial decision signed on 17 October 2024 identified the “Golfe de Gascogne Sud” area, with a planned capacity of 1.2 GW, as a priority offshore wind zone. This South Atlantic zone was explicitly linked to the AO10 tender, with the RTE planning documents describing it as one of two additional offshore wind parks (Golfe de Gascogne Sud for AO10 and Nord for AO11), and indicating a commissioning horizon around 2035.
