Havfram has signed a contract for the transportation and installation of turbines for RWE’s 1600MW Nordseecluster projects.
The projects combine four wind farm sites in the eastern part of the German North Sea.
Havfram Wind is to transport and support the installation of 104 Vestas offshore wind turbines with a capacity of 15MW each, which are to be installed throughout two construction phases.
Both of the company’s newbuild turbine installation vessels will be used throughout both phases.
The work at the two wind farms in Phase A is expected to start in 2026, and offshore construction for Phase B is scheduled to begin in 2028.
Nordseecluster is expected to supply green electricity to the equivalent of 1,600,000 German households every year as of 2029.
Havfram Wind chief executive Even Larsen said: “We are very pleased to successfully conclude the negotiations with RWE for the Nordseecluster projects.
“RWE is an experienced developer and the trust in Havfram Wind for projects of such scale is proof of our growing position in the market.
“We will provide the most modern fleet in the industry, operated by highly skilled teams with profound expertise.”
RWE’s managing director of the Nordseecluster Sven Schulemann added: “We want to achieve substantial economies of scale and leverage synergies during the development, construction and operation of the four wind farms.
“The agreement with Havfram Wind, which encompasses all four projects, attests to the efficiency of concentrating activities such as procurement.”
All deliverables are subject to final investment decisions for each of the individual phases of Nordseecluster (A and B).
