Wind Energy – New SOV Ecowende
ESVAGT has secured the contract to service Vestas at Ecowende’s Hollandse Kust West offshore wind farm in the Netherlands and has initiated the process of designing and building the new SOV.
The newbuild will be the 6thpurpose-built SOV for Vestas; a testament to the strong partnership between two innovative market leaders, who have been cooperating since 2010:
“ESVAGT and Vestas share an extensive history since the earliest days of offshore wind, and Vestas has been one of our key partners in developing and refining our SOV concept,” ESVAGT Chief Strategy and Commercial Officer Søren Karas says.
The new wind farm will be commissioned in 2026. The partners have agreed a 15-year contract with extension options, which is aligned with Vestas’ service contract for Ecowende to ensure the optimal performance of the turbines.
