Senvion has been selected to supply 32 of its 6.XM series turbines to Trianel’s 203MW Borkum West 2.2 offshore wind farm in Germany.
The deal covers delivery and service for the optimised 6.35MW hardware, which will be installed some 45km from the island of Borkum in the North Sea.
The wind farm is due to be completed in 2019, pending a final investment decision in the first half of next year. Work could start in 2018.
The first phase featured Areva (now Adwen) turbines. Turbines will be installed in a water depth of 25 to 35 metres.
Senvion chief executive Jurgen Geissinger said: “We appreciate the confidence that the project consortium Trianel shows in our turbines.
“This contract confirms that we are setting standards in the cost-effective generation of offshore wind energy and we will further consolidate our strong position in the offshore wind-energy market with the Senvion 6.2M152.”
