Wind Energy – Iberian Peninsula
Etermar Energia and Qair announced the signature of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) aimed at future offshore wind projects in the Iberian Peninsula.
The document was signed during a visit by Etermar Energia to Eolmed, Qair’s 30 MW floating offshore wind project currently in construction in Port-La Nouvelle, France.
Etermar Energia is the newly launched renewable energy branch of leading Portuguese maritime engineering company Etermar, and Qair is an independent renewable energy company.
With this agreement, Etermar Energia and Qair join forces around a mutual strategic ambition to become key players in the rapidly expanding global floating offshore wind market. It reflects the parties’ shared interest in collaborating on the construction and operation of floating offshore wind farms within the Portuguese Maritime Spatial Planning Plan (PSOEM) zones and other geographically proximate QRI projects.
The MoU underscores the synergy between Etermar’s facilities – offering robust capabilities for offshore wind farm development, including component stockpiling, foundation manufacturing, logistical support, and Operation and Maintenance services – and Qair’s expertise in renewable energy project development gained as a pioneer with Eolmed in France and a 2GW award-winning leader in Scotland’s Scotwind leasing round.
Together with this collaboration, Etermar Energy and Qair strengthen the potential for advancing offshore wind projects.
