PARTNERSHIPS

Quimper Bretagne Occidentale

In the Pays de Cornouaille, Quimper Bretagne Occidentale was born on January 1, 2017, the merger between Quimper Community and the community of communes of Pays Glazik, and the integration of the town of Quéménéven. This new territory, made up of 14 communes, forms the main urban center of the Pays de Cornouaille. It now represents the second most populous intercommunal structure in Finistère after Brest Métropole, with a population of 100,187, and has a high profile in terms of jobs, services, shops and cultural activities throughout Cornwall.
Labeled Cit’ergie in 2018, it is with a partnership and territorial vision that Quimper Bretagne Occidentale deploys its energy climate policies. By its exemplary nature and its achievements, the agglomeration community wishes to support a regional dynamic, coordinated and structuring, relying on partnerships, knowledge sharing, feedback and pooling resources and resources. In 2015, the agglomeration community seized the issues of green growth, and those of the COP 21, by encouraging the first edition of the Breizh Transition, in order to highlight the talents and contributions to the energy transition of its territory, and, more widely those of Brittany. After a second edition in 2017, Quimper Bretagne Occidentale confirmed its support for the 2019 event, which is a transitional marker in the Breton landscape, and beyond.

Quimper Cornouaille Développement

Quimper Cornouaille Development (QCD) is the economic development and urban planning agency of Cornouaille, which is gathering seven agglomerations and communal communities in south Finistere.
QCD supports elected officials and socio-economic actors in their collective thinking and
concerted actions in the field of territory planning and development.
QCD main role is to promote local development , being at the same time an agency for
economic development , urban planning, Land for contracting with the Region and local
actors, involving in energy and climate. One of its main mission is the “Energy transition”.
Within its mission of « Energy Transition » QCD advises and accompanies elected officials,
local authorities as well as local stakeholders and individuals on energy transition issues.
QCD promote and encourage Cornwall’s participation of public and private actors in their
national efforts by limiting greenhouse gas emissions, by saving energy and developing
renewable energies such as wood energy, marine technology.
As a partner of the 3rd edition of Breizh Transition, QCD is providing its knowledge of the
situation and the perspectives of the energy transition.

ENGIE

ENGIE Brittany Delegation and its subsidiaries (Brittany: 2 284 co-workers, Finistere 763 co-workers, Cornwall’s land: 309 co-workers) master the entire knowledge chain of the energy professions by relying on a simplified territorial organization, favoring the local anchoring and the synergy of business, resolutely connected to its customers.

ENGIE puts responsible growth at the heart of its business (electricity, gas, energy service) and accelerates its transformation to drive the energy transition. The Group focuses on energy efficiency, renewable energies, digital and new businesses.

ENGIE develops efficient and innovative solutions for individuals, cities and businesses, based on its expertise.

The aim of the Breizh Transition trade fair is to bring together economic players responding to the issues of the energy transition: renewable energies, energy efficiency, sustainable mobility, smart grids.

It’s in this spirit that ENGIE Brittany Delegation is a partner of the 2019 edition of Breizh Transition. The delegation and its subsidiaries will be present to explain the Group’s powerful and innovative tools and solutions ; and thus convince local partners and the general public that we can all be actors in the energy transition.

ENEDIS

Enedis is a public DSO which manages the electricity grid and assists the regions with their energy projects. In the near future the regions will have new methods of production with more renewable energy produced locally and new uses with the increase in electric vehicules and self-supply. Soon, the consumers will be equiped with new tools in particular the electricity meter Linky which will enable them to control their comsumption. Adapting the electricity distribution system is a necessity to take in to account these new uses. This is a major challenge for Enedis which has been commited to developing smart grids for several years and particularly in the SMILE project in 2016. Work  is already underway as on the islands of Finistere for example with the micro-grid in Saint Nicolas des Glénan. This micro-grid is supplied by solar panels, wind generators and batteries to optimise changing production and consumption. There is another project in Penestin in the Morbihan run by a self-supply group which produces electricity from panels installed on the town workshops and redistributes it locally to a dozen companies. The major challenge of energy transition gives Enedis and its partners a central role to play in the success of this project.

Breizh (bio)GNV

Breizh Bio GNV, a network of actors mobilized to develop NGV uses in Brittany
The development of Natural Gas Vehicle for the heavy transport of people and goods is an opportunity for Brittany! Beyond the environmental benefits of this fuel, the challenge is also to prepare the competitiveness of the industry with an alternative fuel to diesel. Under the impulse of metropolises providing for the gradual ban of the most polluting vehicles in their urban centers, and then shippers, the challenge for transport stakeholders is to anticipate this energy transition.
Brittany through its biomass valorization potential also has the opportunity to reduce its energy dependence by producing locally a renewable fuel for transportation.
The collective is mobilizing for:
• promote the use of NGV in Brittany, in particular for the heavy transport of goods and people by road;
• build and operate NGV charging stations on the Breton territory, necessary for the circulation of NGV vehicles;
• encourage the purchase of NGV vehicles that will use and make the stations profitable;
• contribute to the development of anaerobic digestion projects, thus developing a local and renewable fuel (biomethane).
The actors in Breizh [bio] GNV: ADEME, Brittany Region, GRDF, GRTgaz, Brittany Energy, Morbihan Energies, Sde22, SDEF, SDe35, FNTR, FNTV, TLF, CCI35, Brittany Supply Chain and Créativ.

GROUPE LA POSTE

The group La Poste is naturally collaborating, on ground level, with all territories so as to boost the ecological and energy transition. Our corporation draws upon an impressive logistics activity intertwined with a wide local network without any equivalent on the national level. We also provide banking services that stretch throughout the whole French territory. Therefore, we can easily reach every citizen, whatever the time and the place. In addition, as a group, we have been involved, for more than fifteen years, in our own energetic transition via our corporate social responsibility.

We are highly engaged into various ambitious programmes : implementation of the world premiere electrical fleet, incentives towards energy sober constructions and a commitment to offering total carbon free post, package and digital services. We vest our know-how in energy transition actions into territorial players and we do so via different subsidiaries : Benobi, a branch specialised in long term rental of electrical bicyles, or Action Habitat et Depar, which acts in the energy renovation market of housings. The group La Poste is also affiliated with other major business partners. In association with the Suez company, we have created a joint subsidiary, Recygo, which has a solidarity-based mission to recycle all office waste. With the Caisse des Dépôts et Consignations, we are acting, via our common branch Sobre, to optimise the energy performance of all tertiary buildings. Logically, La Banque Postale finances and supports all carbon-free projects.

Subsequently, the group La Poste is well-founded to foster any energy transition project, anywhere in the French territory.
