This document summarizes the Provence Grand Large floating wind pilot farm project. It discusses the project's history since 2010, the extensive consent process with local stakeholders, and the engineering work completed so far including metocean studies and grid connection agreements. It also describes the selection of the Marseille-Fos port site and next steps to speed up permitting for pilot projects and clarify the roadmap for future commercial projects in the region.

PORT
§ 15 sites surveyed in french mediterranean harbours
§ Selected site : west basins of Marseille – Fos harbour
§ Main issues
• Scarcity of available grounds
• Quay and ground loads
• Co-ac@vity with exis@ng traffic
• Marine safety
• Civil and military aeronau@cal procedures
• Authorisa@ons!

LINKS WITH COMMERCIAL PHASE
§ Poten@al in PACA up to 2 GW, 25% of regional produc@on
§ Local players expect pilot phase REX first!
§ Step 1 : speed up pilot projects processing
• Limited scale/impact => procedures shoud speed up
• Environment monitoring to remain « per@nent » et « reasonnable »
• Upstream involvement of local environment stakeholders
§ Step 2 : In // clarify « commercial » roadmap
• Give long term target to industrial players / investors
• Start working on poten@al areas now!
• Strengthen consulta@on process with local stakeholders
• Tenders to be launched separatetly un@l parity with fixed offshore achieved
• An@cipa@on of grid connec@on, logis@cs and harbors infrastrucures
