Wind Energy – Borkum Riffgrund
Yesterday marked the first time that Ørsted’s offshore wind farm Borkum Riffgrund 3 fed power into the grid.
With a total capacity of 913 MW, Borkum Riffgrund 3 is Ørsted’s largest offshore wind farm in Germany. When fully commissioned in Q1 2026, it will bring Ørsted’s total installed offshore wind capacity in Germany up to around 2.5 GW.
The project has been constructed using wind turbines and foundations from Germany and Denmark, cables from Germany and France, and installation vessels from the Netherlands and Belgium.
