China, one of the key areas for the EDF Group's international development

Since the mid-80s, EDF participated in the first large-scale nuclear power project in China as technical head, making active contribution to the Chinese nuclear industry by participating in the construction of Daya Bay nuclear power station. 

 

Following the successful cooperation on the Daya Bay project, EDF continues to keep healthy and steady relationship with Chinese leading nuclear companies, providing technical and service support. Through its long-standing partnership with CGN, EDF has participated in the Taishan EPR nuclear power project.

 

In 2016, EDF entered the Chinese renewable energy market. In 2019, EDF became the first foreign investor in the Chinese offshore wind market through Dongtai offshore wind project.

 

With innovation as core of all business, EDF has diversified its business in China into renewable energies, R&D and innovation, integrated low-carbon energy services, engineering inspection and consultant services. Based on a solid foundation of forty years presence in China, EDF is now one of the largest foreign investors in China’s power generation sector.

 

Under China’s double carbon target, EDF is committed to providing innovative solutions and technologies to Chinese customers. The EDF Group’s industrial partnerships with Chinese players are also continuing internationally.
