Welcome to ENGIE’s first open data windfarm

ENGIE group

ENGIE develops its businesses (power, natural gas, energy services) around a model based on responsible growth to take on the major challenges of energy’s transition to a low-carbon economy: access to sustainable energy, climate-change mitigation and adaptation and the rational use of resources. The Group provides individuals, cities and businesses with highly efficient and innovative solutions largely based on its expertise in four key sectors: renewable energy, energy efficiency, liquefied natural gas and digital technology.

ENGIE employs 153,090 people worldwide and achieved revenues of €66.6 billion in 2016.

ENGIE, a major player in the production of green electricity in France (31/12/2016)

• 1st wind power producer with an installed capacity of 1,730 MW
• 1st solar power producer with an installed capacity of 522 MWC
• 1st alternative hydropower producer with an installed capacity of 3,820 MW

The 1st open data windfarm : “La Haute Borne” (Meuse, France)

On the strength of its wind-power leadership position in France and in line with its strategy to make digitalization a major focus area in its transformation for greater efficiency, ENGIE decided to open up to the public the data of the “La Haute Borne” wind farm (in the Meuse department), which is operated by its ENGIE Green subsidiary. The farm’s 4 wind turbines have been providing electricity to the equivalent of 7,300 people since 2009, thus avoiding around 12,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions per year.

Through this open and transparent approach to the operation of a wind farm, ENGIE intends to bring together a community for the benefit of improved wind turbine operation and to help develop the services that the farms provide to the regions, by capitalizing on the increasingly large amount of data available.

The data are published under the Open License version 2.0 published by Etalab.
