Water farm in the park of Feyssine

The project is to develop a renewable energy supply in hydroelectricity. It follows the provision of a site on an experimental basis by Voies Navigables de France (VNF) in order to exploit the kinetic energy of river current on the upstream Rhône (from PK0 to PK8), and more particularly a location close to the park of Feyssine in the commune of Caluire-et-Cuire (69) The company Centrale Hydrolienne de la Feyssine will deploy an experimental park of 4 hydroline companies to produce electricity and demonstrate the efficiency of this energy production.
