As part of its commitment to the energy transition Artea now offers an innovation with the first private SMART GRID in the PACA region. This SMART GRID designed in partnership with ENEDIS and the company ARTESOL, a subsidiary of ARTEA, will allow each building to produce, store and Exchange self-consumed energy.
Three photovoltaic power plants producing about 300 kW will supply all the buildings and eventually the hundred electrical terminals to power the fleets of electric vehicles and rechargeable hybrids.
The innovative architectural design offering bright spaces with balconies, terraces and roof top, combined with high level services will allow future occupants to benefit from a qualitative framework of work in the heart of an exceptional environment .
Several users have already committed to this program. For example, the IBM group has signed a lease with Artea to rent the entire building C of approximately 1 900 m².
