About Sun’R
Sun'R Groupe, established in 2007 by Antoine Nogier, operates as a key player in the French renewable energy sector. Nogier, an engineer from the prestigious Ecole Polytechnique and an energy economist, leveraged his mid-1990s experience in the photovoltaic industry to found the company. His prior work, which included tackling energy and water access issues and consulting for major French corporations on sustainable development, shaped Sun'R's strategic direction. The company was founded with the mission to accelerate agricultural and energy transitions to combat global warming.
Read full description
The firm's business is structured around three core activities. The primary segment involves the development, construction, and operation of photovoltaic power plants, catering to industrial, private, and educational establishments. This division manages an operational portfolio of over 100 MWp with an additional 300 MWp in development. A second, distinctive business line is 'dynamic agrivoltaics,' operated through its subsidiary Sun'Agri. This unit, born from a research program initiated in 2009, develops intelligent systems and infrastructure that integrate solar energy production with agriculture to protect crops and enhance farm viability. The third pillar is the supply of green, local electricity through its subsidiary, Volterres. Volterres acts as a green electricity provider, connecting a network of over 40 independent renewable energy producers with approximately 10,000 business clients, facilitating a short-circuit energy supply.
Sun'R's business model generates revenue through several streams: the production and sale of photovoltaic electricity, the design and implementation of agrivoltaic solutions, and the supply of green electricity contracts to businesses. The company offers various products and services, including the installation of solar panels on rooftops and parking canopies, the development of ground-mounted solar farms, and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) that provide clients with long-term visibility on electricity costs. A significant milestone occurred in December 2022 when the French construction and concessions company Eiffage acquired a controlling stake of nearly 75% in Sun'R, a share planned to exceed 80%. This strategic merger provides Sun'R with the scale to accelerate its growth while allowing founder Antoine Nogier and the management team to retain a minority shareholding and continue steering the company's innovative course.
