OX2 has entered into a conditional agreement with EEW for the delivery of monopile foundations for two offshore wind projects it is developing with Ingka Investments off the Swedish coast.
The agreement with EEW Special Pipe Constructions (SPC) will enable OX2 and Ingka Investments to start realising the projects following grant of final permit.
According to the agreement, EEW SPC will deliver up to 230 monopile foundations for the offshore wind farms Galatea-Galene and Triton in Sweden.
“This marks the start of the next episode for our offshore projects in Sweden and we are incredibly happy to be engaging EEW.
“We will be working close with EEW to make sure we can start construction as soon as possible and thereby make a large-scale contribution of emissions-free electricity to parts of Sweden that needs it the most,” said Emelie Zakrisson, Head of Offshore Wind Development, OX2 Sweden.
“We are very pleased to support OX2 on their endeavor in the Baltic Sea, for which we geographically are very well positioned to support from our facility in Rostock,” added Robert Dreves, CEO, EEW SPC.
OX2 is developing three offshore wind farms in Sweden together with Ingka Investments: Galatea-Galene on the west coast, Triton, in the south of Sweden and Aurora, between the islands Gotland and Öland.
The final approval of the projects will be decided by the Government of Sweden.
OX2 also develops offshore wind in Finland and outside Åland.
