In operation

Leuze-en-Hainaut

Mis en service en août 2011, le parc de Leuze est composé de 10 éoliennes dont 7 appartiennent à ENGIE. Situé à deux pas du zoning de Leuze, il illustre l’engagement d’ENGIE dans la transition énergétique.

Aperçu du projet

Un partenariat public-privé-citoyen dans un projet vert. En plus du développement des activités renouvelables, l’objectif est d’assurer un retour positif pour la région. C’est pourquoi ENGIE exploite le parc avec un partenariat public privé. Sur les 10 éoliennes, 7 appartiennent à ENGIE, 2 à Ideta (intercommunale de développement pour la Wallonie Picarde) et une pour la coopérative citoyenne PELZ-CLEF scrl. Ce parc contribue directement aux objectifs de la politique européenne, nationale et régionale de réduction des émissions de gaz à effet de serre.

Enfin, ENGIE désire également accompagner ses clients industriels dans la transition énergétique. En plus de ses nombreux services (pour l’entretien des installations ou de services pour la réduction de la consommation), l’entreprise accompagne ses clients dans le développement d’un parc de production sur site. Ainsi, un projet d’une éolienne supplémentaire est à l’étude pour alimenter directement en électricité les entreprises du zoning de Leuze. Les entreprises locales pourront donc améliorer leur compétitivité.
