How we see this market / issue
What we are doing
SNCF Renouvelables aims to cover 15-20% of the
Group's current electricity needs and deliver a first
tranche of photovoltaic plants covering 1,000 acres by
2030, providing a capacity of 1,000 MWc of electricity
(Voltaferro Project).
We advised SNCF on the structuring and the design of the
project. Our task was to identify the legal procedures that would
speed up the harmonized implementation of the projects by
using the exemption from public procurement rules and by
centralizing the implementation of the projects in the dedicated
subsidiary.
French-owned state railway operator, SNCF, has
recently created a new subsidiary called SNCF
Renouvelables with the aim of launching photovoltaic
projects on all its land in France (Voltaferro Project).

How we see this market / issue
What we are doing
In order to improve the connection of renewable
energy producers to the distribution grid, Enedis is
trying to simplify the technical rules for grid connection
by proposing new measures in French law.
We advised Enedis to find the best way to integrate its proposals
into the government's legislative project and to propose that
these rules be adopted by ordinance in order to speed up
the process of implementing the measures. These measures
included, for example, simplifying the amendment process for
the regional connection schemes for renewable energy sources,
establishing new rules for the sharing of connection costs, and
simplifying the public consultation procedures for works on the
public electricity distribution grid.
