We thank each of them for making EDF RE a great success this year.”

EDF EN, the entity charged with renewable development globally, will largely contribute to this goal through EDF RE’s North America market position.”

According to the Business Renewable Center, corporate market share of contracted wind capacity nearly tripled from 19% in 2014 to 56% in 2015.
