The SICTOM du Marsan, represented by its president Jean-Louis Darrieutort and vice-president Philippe Sartre, discovered the photovoltaic power plant in Saint-Perdon, scheduled for commissioning in early December 2026. The tour was led by Edouard Serres and Hélène Dutrey, directors of the SLTE group.
This site, operated until 2009 as a household waste landfill, now hosts a large-scale photovoltaic installation built by the SLTE group, based in Serres-Gaston. This project aims to enhance the syndicate's land assets and promote renewable energy development in the Landes department.
Discussions focused on the project's technical specifications and the arrangements made for the site's redevelopment while preserving biodiversity. A notable technical feature is the choice of above-ground foundations to avoid impacting the buried waste mass. 1,227 gabions, filled with nearly 3,300 tons of eco-gravel produced by SICTOM du Marsan from user-deposited rubble, exemplify the principles of the circular economy.
The plant, covering 3 hectares, includes 15,802 m² of photovoltaic panels (5,850 panels installed) with a total installed capacity of 3.656 MWc. It will produce 4,756 MWh of electricity annually, equivalent to the consumption of 2,000 households.
This project, developed with local economic actors and with an operating life of 20 years, demonstrates SICTOM du Marsan's commitment to giving new functions to its historical sites, thereby contributing to the energy transition and the future of the territory.
