Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind Project 1 has selected Ramboll as the design and structural engineering firm for the turbine foundations on its 1.5GW offshore wind project.
Ramboll will provide a comprehensive design service to be led by a group of experts across the US and Europe. This work will accelerate the deployment of offshore wind resources and support New Jersey’s thriving clean energy economy by creating jobs and local employment opportunities over the life of the project.
“Atlantic Shores Project 1 is thrilled to partner with Ramboll on our foundation design and helping us set industry benchmarks for safety, reliability, and efficiency,” said Rain Byars, Technical & Delivery Director for Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind.
“Ramboll is the right choice to perform this critical work as Atlantic Shores literally lays the foundation for New Jersey’s clean energy transition. With our recent announcement of Vestas as preferred turbine supplier, adding the expertise and experience of Ramboll to our 1.5 GW offshore wind project is yet another vote of confidence in Atlantic Shores Project 1 and Atlantic Shores’ entire 5+ GW portfolio.”
“We are proud to partner with Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind on the design of its turbine foundations and support New Jersey in reaching its offshore wind development targets,” said Tim Fischer, Global Senior Director of Wind for Ramboll.
“With a local presence of more than 2,000 staff across the US and from our recently expanded offices in Princeton, Ramboll is well-positioned to contribute its industry knowledge to the local clean tech sector and help New Jersey achieve its ambitious climate goals.”
