Saguenay, February 12, 2024 \u2014<\/strong> Just eight months after its establishment, the Saguenay\u2013Lac-Saint-Jean joint venture Nutrinor-Gilbert Renewable Energies is advancing to the next phase of its development with the acquisition of Valeco Energy Quebec from the German group Energie Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg (EnBW).<\/p>\n The transaction allows Nutrinor-Gilbert Renewable Energies to gain control of the Dune-du-Nord Wind Farm in the \u00celes-de-la-Madeleine, as well as a portfolio of projects at various stages of development.
