Ocean Winds announced that the Îles d’Yeu and Noirmoutier (EMYN) offshore wind farm achieved first power on 4 June 2025, after an initial testing phase that began on 23 May 2025. The first Siemens Gamesa 8 MW turbines were connected to France’s national grid via RTE’s offshore and onshore connection infrastructure, marking the project’s first export of green electricity and a major milestone toward full commissioning by the end of 2025.
