Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT), through Total Quadran, a
wholly-owned affiliate dedicated to developing and producing
renewable energy in France, was awarded with 131 megawatt-peak
(MWp) of solar projects -- or 20% of the total up for the seventh
round of the CRE 4 (French Energy Regulatory Commission) tender for
ground-mounted solar parks, as well as 5.6 MWp of solar in the
French Overseas departments and collectivities (ZNI(1) ).
More than half the capacities awarded fall under Total's program
to solarize its industrial facilities and reuse of industrial
brownfield sites, including:
-- Total's future largest ground-mounted solar plant in France: the 50 MWp
solar plant in Valenciennes is the largest project awarded in the call
for tenders and Total Quadran's biggest solar plant to date. It will be
installed on Total's former refinery site that has been redeveloped by
RETIA2. The solar plant will supply green electricity to nearly 32,000
people when it comes on stream in 2022.
-- the largest photovoltaic power plant of the Greater Paris Region: located
near the Grandpuits refinery, the 25 MWp solar plant will be the largest
in the Greater Paris Region. It will generate enough renewable
electricity to cover the needs of nearly 17,000 people. The plant is
scheduled to come on stream by 2022.
The projects of Lavéra (3 MWp), located in Bouches-du-Rhône,
Serpaize (5 MWp) and Brignoud (4 MWp), both in Isère, all located
on industrial brownfield sites were also included in the winning
CRE 4.7 tender.
"Total Quadran is proud to rank among France's renewable energy
leaders. The results of this call for tenders illustrate our
ability to put together solid, competitive bids in an increasingly
competitive environment," said Thierry Muller, General Manager of
Total Quadran. "Total's program to solarize industrial facilities
by enhancing brownfield sites is a key factor in this success which
we intend to carry on."
Total and Low-Carbon Electricity
As part of its ambition to become the responsible energy major,
Total is building a portfolio of low-carbon electricity operations,

sales mix by 2040. Today, Total's gross low-carbon power generation
capacity is close to 7 gigawatts, of which 3 gigawatts from
renewable energy sources.
With over 6 GW of solar projects announced since the beginning
of 2020, the Group is well on track to reach its objective of 25 GW
of installed power generation capacity from renewable sources by
2025.
