France: Total Wins 50 MW of Projects in Latest National Solar Tender – Close
To 400 MW of Projects Awarded Over Past 18 Months

 

Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT), through Total Quadran, its renewable
energy subsidiary in France, was awarded 50 megawatts (MW) of solar projects
in the ninth round of the CRE 4 (French Energy Regulatory Commission) tender.

Total thus confirms its position as number 1 in solar development in France
with close to 400 MW, the largest volume awarded over the last 18 months.

Most of the awarded sites will be developed on repurposed sites and will allow
to redesign former industrial sites.

Total Quadran will ensure the construction, operation and commissioning of
these projects by 2022.

"Total once again confirms its commitment to developing renewable energies in
France. We are proud, through our participation in the French Energy
Regulatory Commission’s calls for tenders, to participate in the
transformation of the French energy landscape” said Julien Pouget, Senior
Vice President Renewables of Total.

Total, renewables and electricity

As part of its ambition to get to net zero by 2050, Total is building a
portfolio of activities in renewables and electricity that should account for
up to 40 % of its sales by 2050. At the end of 2020, Total's gross power
generation capacity worldwide was around 12 GW, including 7 GW of renewable
energy. Total will continue to expand this business to reach 100 GW of gross
production capacity from renewable sources by 2030 with the objective of being
among the world's top 5 in renewable energies.
