Cadeler has signed a contract with Siemens Gamesa to install 26 wind turbines at the Aflandshage offshore wind farm south of Copenhagen in 2026.
This will be the first time in several years that the company has installed turbines in its home Danish waters.
The 300MW Aflandshage wind farm is being developed by HOFOR, Greater Copenhagen utility company.
The wind farm will be located in Øresund, about 10 kilometres off the south coast of Copenhagen.
Cadeler will use one of its O-class vessels, which by the time will feature a new and larger main crane with a lifting capacity of 1,600 metric tonnes at a radius of 40 metres. The main hook will be able to reach 160 metres above the main deck.
The Aflandshage is one out of a number of planned offshore wind parks in Danish waters that will power Danish homes with renewable electricity.
Last year, the Danish parliament agreed to quadruple the production of solar and wind energy on land by 2030, as well as a five-fold increase in offshore wind power capacity.
