Eneco, Boralex, Van Oord and Diamond Generating Europe have joined forces to bid for the right to develop an up to 600MW offshore wind farm off the coast of Dunkirk in France.
The Vents de Dunkerque consortium said it can provide a package for the whole lifecycle of the project.
Eneco, Van Oord and DGE have already cooperated on the operational 129MW Luchterduinen project off the Netherlands.
They are also working together to build the 369.6MW Norther plant off Belgium and the 700MW Borssele 3&4 project off the Dutch coast.
Boralex will bring knowledge of the French market to the group.
A total of nine consortia are participating in the tender for the Round 3 Dunkirk project.
They have until early March to submit bids for the wind farm, with the government set to announce the winner this summer.
