About Us

Established in 1906 as a steel producer, the Falck Group grew to be the largest private steel producer in Italy. From the beginning, Falck constructed hydroelectricity plants to guarantee power supply to its steel factories. As the demand for steel decreased from the 1970s to the 1990s, Falck shifted its focus from steel to electricity. More recently the focus has shifted to generating electricity from renewable and sustainable sources.

Falck Renewables is active in four core markets: the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, and France, with approximately 320 MW in operation or construction. Significant future growth is expected in both core and new markets, supported by a large development pipeline and Falck’s network of joint development ventures with world class local developers.  

The company was formed in August 2002, with the objective of operating plats that generate electricity through the exploitation of wind power, a renewable source with a ‘zero impact’ on the atmosphere and whose deployment has witnessed exponential growth though Europe.

At the fifth anniversary, Falck looks ahead to its next five years and to continued growth in the wind energy sector to help reduce the pace of climate change. The EU target of producing 20% of energy from renewable sources by 2020 is a challenging target for the growth of renewable energy and Falck aims to be a major contributor in meeting this target.
