Wind Energy – Nordseecluster
RWE and Northland Power have selected Havfram Wind as the preferred supplier for their project Nordseecluster.
This cluster of up to 1.6 gigawatts (GW), consists of four offshore wind farm sites in the German North Sea.
Havfram Wind is to transport and support the installation of a minimum of 104 Vestas offshore wind turbines with a capacity of 15 megawatts (MW) each. All deliverables are subject to final investment decisions for each of the individual phases for the Nordseecluster (A and B).
Dr. Benjamin Miethling, Northland Power’s Managing Director of the Nordseecluster: “We expect to achieve substantial economies of scale and leverage synergies during the development, construction and operation of the four wind farms. Our preferred supplier agreement with Havfram Wind, which encompasses all four projects, attests to the efficiency of concentrating activities such as procurement.”
Sven Schulemann, RWE’s Managing Director of the Nordseecluster: “This is the next important milestone on our way to completing this 1.6-gigawatt cluster. When the Nordseecluster is fully operational at the beginning of 2029 it will generate enough green electricity to supply the equivalent of 1,600,000 German households every year.”
Even Larsen, CEO Havfram Wind: “Signing the preferred supplier agreement for the transport and installation support of the entire lot of wind turbines for a gigantic project like Nordseecluster is proof of our growing position in the market. I am proud of the trust RWE and Northland Power have in the Havfram Wind team. Participating in such a project of scale is a milestone for our development as a pure play offshore wind company.”
