European Commission Greenlights France’s EUR 63 Billion Aid Scheme to Build 11 Offshore Wind Farms

The scheme covers up to 11.1 GW of capacity across eleven offshore wind farms in the North Sea, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, with a maximum budget of EUR 63 billion and a 25-year duration. Aid will be delivered through a variable premium two-way contract for difference (CfD) awarded via competitive bidding, replacing a previously approved scheme for three of the projects. The Commission found the measure necessary and proportionate under the Clean Industrial Deal State Aid Framework (CISAF) adopted on 25 June 2025.
