Question 14188 — energy and fuels

Summary

Ms. Mathilde Paris alerts the Minister of Energy Transition about the construction and operation of a wind energy project in Varrenes-Changy despite opposition from elected officials, residents and the commission of inquiry. The third district of Loiret is affected by the construction of this wind project, which will notably affect the municipalities of Molinet-sur-Solin, Les Choux and Langesse. In fact, the company Les Ailes du Gatinais wishes to implement a wind power project in Varrenes-Changy, a project on which the investigating commissioners issued an unfavorable opinion a few months ago, denouncing various failures. Local elected officials also mobilized strongly by voting against the project within the framework of municipal councils, as did residents and associations who multiplied events to demonstrate their opposition and collected donations. hundreds of signatures on petitions. Despite these various demonstrations against the wind project, the prefect of Loiret issued a decree dated November 2, 2023 aimed at authorizing the construction of this same wind farm. The authorization of this project despite the strong opposition it encounters in the territory is challenging. Wind projects thus appear to be imposed by the State and successive Governments, without genuine consultation or consideration of local acceptability criteria. Onshore wind power is the most contested type of renewable energy due to its impacts on landscapes and biodiversity. This is a real financial waste due to the intermittency of this means of production and whose effects on human and animal health are insufficiently taken into account, as is the loss of value of the heritage of residents (decrease in the movable value of homes of 30 to 50% on all homes located less than 2 km or even up to 6 km, without any compensation). In view of all these elements, the MP asks the Minister to reconsider the implementation and development of this wind project widely denounced and refused by elected officials, associations, residents and members of the commission of inquiry.
