| Work Detail |
Iberdrola has announced that the €1 billion Windanker project in Germany has advanced to the delivery phase. All supply chain contracts for major components are now locked in for the 315MW project, and fabrication work is set to get underway starting in July 2024.
The Windanker project will support more than 1,200 jobs in construction, working with 130 different suppliers located across 22 countries. A total of 20 vessels will be involved in delivering the project.
Iberdrola has selected to use 21 offshore wind turbines, each with an output of around 15MW. Windanker will be fully commissioned in 2026, with 100% of its generation already sold to industrial and commercial customers through long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs). Windanker is one of three projects in Germany that will form part of Iberdrola’s “Baltic Hub”. The company already operates the 350MW Wikinger wind farm and is finishing the construction of the 467MW Baltic Eagle project (a joint venture with Masdar), which will be completed in 2024. Together, these offshore wind farms will have a total capacity of more than 1.1GW in 2026, with a combined investment of around €3.7 billion. |
