Wind Energy – Lease Agreement
Ørsted has signed a lease agreement for up to 100,000 square meters at the Port of Tyne, one of the UK’s major deep-sea ports, to support the development of its Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm.
The site, located at Tyne Clean Energy Park in South Shields, will be fundamental to the construction and completion of the 2.9 GW Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm, which, once complete, is expected to be the world’s single largest offshore wind farm.
Ørsted will use the site to marshal secondary steel components for the project before each unit is loaded onto the Wind Orca, a state-of-the-art jack-up vessel owned by Cadeler ahead of setting off to the Hornsea 3 site.
