Sports partnerships

Embodying the universal values of energy, team spirit and solidarity, rugby has a unique place in EDF’s sports partnerships.

In 2009, we decided to strengthen our presence in European professional rugby by renewing our partnership with the European Rugby Cup (ERC) for the next four years. This makes EDF one of the biggest sponsors of the Heineken Cup, the most prominent competition in rugby after the Six Nations Championship.

EDF’s efforts to promote the sport in Europe are fully aligned with the international dimension underpinning the operations of its subsidiaries EDF Energy, Edison and EnBw.

Rugby

Since it promotes universal values such as energy, team spirit, and working together, rugby has a special place within our sporting partnerships.

  • Final at the Stade de France
  • The H Cup celebrates its 15-year anniversary
  • 24 European clubs in competition
  • 72 group matches


Fifty per cent of EDF Group sales are generated outside France.

In actively participating in the promotion of rugby across Europe, we are confirming the international dimension of our activities and notably the important role played by our subsidiaries EDF Energy, Edison, and EnBW.

In 2009, we strengthened our commitment to top-level European professional rugby in renewing our partnership with the European Rugby Cup (ERC) through to 2012. EDF has thus become one of the major partners of the H Cup. This year, the European Rugby Cup celebrates its 15-year anniversary. On May 22, 2010, EDF will be there to welcome you to the showpiece match at the Stade de France.
