The only French wind-turbine manufacturer

Vergnet, France’s only manufacturer of wind turbines, has earned its place as the leader in mid-range wind-power generation on the FARWIND® market with its original technology of twin-bladed aerogenerators, which can be tilted down in less than one hour in the event of a cyclonic alert.

To this day, the Group has provided and installed over 500 aerogenerators throughout the world, generating over 150,000 MWh of eco-friendly electricity each year.

Vergnet’s customers are:

• Electric power companies
• Independent power producers
  

Historically focused on the international market, Vergnet is established in five regions of the world (France, the Caribbean, the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, and Africa).

The Group’s achievements can be found on all six continents.

A recognised standard in rural hydraulics

Vergnet’s reputation has been made on the design, construction and installation of “the Vergnet hydropump ”., which provides drinkable water to over 40 million people, at 80 000 water points worldwide. The Group is currently growing in the more general area of water conveyance.

A sustainable-development approach

As a forerunner of this sustainable development approach, Vergnet has successfully endeavoured, for both activities, to dialog, share and act in concert with local players.

The Group creates local companies which guarantee new jobs, train technicians, and ensure on-site availability of spare parts, so as to provide a consistent service in the areas of water conveyance and wind-power production.

A planned development strategy for its reference markets

With its current machine, the 275kW GEV MP, and the development of the 1MW GEV HP, supported by the setting up of a new sales force, Vergnet seeks to offer larger and more powerful wind farms to its Farwind market clients. The new GEV HP, which features all the innovations typical of Vergnet wind turbines, will allow the construction of wind farms with capacities from 10 to 50 MW.

The Group’s objective is to become the world’s leading provider of wind power on oil/diesel-generated electricity (“petroelectricity”) networks, and the world reference in water-conveyance solutions for developing rural areas.
