Since 1994, VALOREM, an independent French operator in green energy has been working to meet the challenge of a sustainable energy future by involving local populations and communities. VALOREM has adopted a multi-energy approach adapted to the specificities of each territory. A pioneer in onshore wind power, the group also has expertise in solar and hydroelectric power, marine renewable energy, offshore wind and hydrogen.
With 450 employees in France and in Europe, VALOREM‘s agencies and maintenance bases are located as close as possible to its renewable energy projects. The group exports its know-how internationally through subsidiaries and local partnerships that operate in their geographical areas, particularly in Finland, Greece and Poland.

The French Renewable Energy Trade Association gathered 520 companies, representing more than 200 000 jobs and 25 billion euros turnover. It represents directly and indirectly thousands of industrials, large companies, SME’s, R&D centers from all of the renewable energy channels: biofuels, biomass, wood, biogas, renewable marine power, onshore and offshore wind power, geothermal energy, hydroelectricity, heat pumps, solar photovoltaics, thermal and concentrated solar power. The primary missions of the SER are :

–          To develop the share of renewable energy in France’s energy production and to promote the interests of the French private sector.

–          To participate in the creation and implementation of legislative and regulatory framework. In constant contact with political authorities, ministerial cabinets, and the administration, the SER follows, from day-to-day, the discussions and work of the Assemblée Nationale (National Assembly) and the Sénat (Senate) and informs its members.

–          To represent the French private sectors in the discussion with international and national financial institutions, foreign authorities or international organizations (European Commission, IRENA, International Solar Alliance, IEA,..)

–          To support its members and facilitate their development in France and abroad. Through the organization of collective missions, country information meetings, BtoB meetings, conferences, seminars, and forums in partnership with local authorities, the SER also boasts its experience of implementing development policy for renewable energy projects.

–          To assist SER’s counterparts in least developed countries in their maturation, position papers elaboration, key founding events organization, knowledge sharing in order to ease and speed local energy transition through renewables.

Port Atlantique La Rochelle is the 6th largest French port. It is a deep sea port on the Atlantic coast and hosts most large vessels 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

It deals with a versatile and diversified traffic of goods. As part of its dynamics for the benefit of the ecological transition, an example of this, is its adaptation, to be a Logistics Hub for the offshore wind energy.

This commitment is also reflected in actions to reduce CO₂ by promoting modal shift by rail.

Innovation, one of the pillars of its strategy, is demonstrated by the development of digital tools and the creation of a Port Innovation Operator for its use and that of its customers and partners.

Accompanied by the port’s businesses and communities, Port Atlantique La Rochelle aims to be responsive, sustainable and intelligent.

European operator of a lightning detection network, Météorage provides professionals with lightning risk prevention services. Météorage supports customers in France, in Europe and internationally.

Specialized in the mitigation of lightning risk, and assistance to its management, we work with many sectors of activity, including wind energy, industry, insurance oil depots, refineries, network operators, etc.
 
Our services do not require any installation or maintenance for our users, and allow them to cover all levels of lightning risks, with the possibility of:
– being alerted of the arrival of a storm on their site,
– visualizing and following the lightning activity in real time, on 1 or more geolocated sites, and the representation of storm cells.
– realizing reports following a stormy episode.
 
The unmatched efficiency of our network, proven by several recognized scientifical studies, enables us to provide some high-level services throughout Europe.  We detect 98% of the entire lightning activity throughout Europe and our average current location accuracy is under 100 meters.

Based in Plaisir, South West of Paris, HENSOLDT France is a fully owned subsidiary of HENSOLDT Group, a world leading sensor manufacturer for aerospace, ground and naval applications. HENSOLDT France developed AirSentinel, a solution for aircraft detection lighting systems (ADLS, BNK).

AirSentinel is a passive receiver. It detects aircraft approaching the wind farm area and representing a potential hazard. It activates the obstruction lights until the aircraft is away from the risk zone. The win farm area can remain dark most of the night, avoiding light pollution at night and without compromise on flight safety.

AirSentinel complies with German Regulation BMVI-LF15-20200424-SF-A006.

AirSentinel is one of many sensors, developed by HENSOLDT for superior performance in any environment. Our sensors portfolio detects a wide range of objects and targets based on primary and secondary radars, optronics, electronic warfare, avionics and cyber technology.

HENSOLDT AG is a leading company in the European defence and security industry. Based near Munich, the company develops complete sensor solutions for defence and security applications. With more than 6,400 employees, HENSOLDT achieved a turnover of 1.7 billion euros in 2022. HENSOLDT is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
