Wind Energy – Elwind
Engineering company Haskoning and the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia have signed a contract on 18th February 2026.
Haskoning will carry out the design phase for the ELWIND offshore wind project, spanning over the next three years.
ELWIND is the joint Estonian and Latvian state-run offshore wind project aiming to increase the region’s independence by increasing renewable energy production. Haskoning’s experts will prepare the general concept for the two wind farms in the Baltic Sea and develop this into an integral and comprehensive technical design for the ELWIND project.
Haskoning’s work will include layout optimization, transmission grid studies and integration of site investigations and environmental assessment. A well-designed wind farm is essential to inform decision-making and prepare the project for subsequent development phases.
Haskoning will execute the project together with subconsultant partner Empire Engineering, who is responsible for designing the foundations of the wind turbines.
