OKWIND launches the construction of its new industrial site in Etrelles (35)

Regulatory News:

Groupe OKWIND (FR0013439627 – ALOKW), which is specialized in the design, manufacture and sale of smart energy generation and management systems dedicated to self-consumption, takes a major step forward today with the start of construction of its new industrial production site in Etrelles (35), Brittany, in partnership with Legendre Construction. This ambitious project marks a key milestone in the Group's development, reinforcing its differentiated approach to self-consumption and energy autonomy, as well as its commitment to the energy transition.

A strategic milestone in the Group's industrial development

With an industrial capacity up to three times higher than of its current site, this new building will support the increase in production and diversification of the Group's activities. It will also house the headquarters of Groupe OKWIND, designed to accommodate 250 employees in an innovative and exemplary space in terms of energy performance.

With an additional 1-hectare land reserve, the Etrelles site marks a structuring milestone in the Group's strategic roadmap, aimed at supporting its medium- and long-term growth dynamics.

As a true showcase of the Group's expertise, this building will serve as a demonstration and innovation platform for photovoltaic technologies dedicated to self-consumption. The complete ecosystem of OKWIND solutions (trackers, fixed ground-mounted and roof-mounted photovoltaic panels, storage and recharging elements) will be deployed to ensure energy production and strengthen energy autonomy of the site.

A site focused on innovation and sustainability

  • Innovative industrial processes and tools mainly through optimization of space and flow management;
  • A dedicated R&D laboratory for the development of new technologies to optimize energy production and management;
  • A collective self-consumption loop involving five local companies and Vitré Community, for shared and decarbonized energy;
  • A responsible design aimed at reducing the building's carbon footprint.

With this industrial excellence center, scheduled for delivery at the end of 2025, Groupe OKWIND equips itself with the necessary production capacities to support the transformation of the energy market.

Louis MAURICE, Founder and Chairman of Groupe OKWIND, states: "We are very proud to realize our ambition with the launch of the construction of this high-performance factory, which will accelerate the responsible energy transition. This is a structuring and important step, combining high industrial performance and controlled environmental impact. This project consolidates our long-term outlook and perfectly and truly materializes our desire to put industrial power at the service of the environmental energy transition."

With this large-scale site, Groupe OKWIND reaffirms its ambition to accelerate the transition to local, sustainable, and accessible energy for all, while ensuring value creation for all its stakeholders.
