The only one of its kind in Europe, the Rance tidal power plant is managed by EDF: here, it's the sea and the high tides that generate electricity. The 750m-long dam hides a 390m-long underwater plant! The Odyssélec discovery area offers an exhibition, guided tours and events to learn more about this impressive technology.
