This project is located on the south-west side of the Maine-et-Loire ridge. The main emphasis in the plannung process for this project was not only to find the location with the best wind conditions, but also to integrate the wind turbines into the environment without restraining the views on the protected landmark "colline des Gardes".

This project shows our ambition to integrate the wind-turbines into the landscape to minimize nuisance while ensuring maximum utilization.
