Germany has 191 offshore wind farm projects of which 30 currently operating, 2 where construction has progressed enough to connect the turbines and generate electricity, 2 are in the build phase, and 3 are either consented or have applied for consent. You can access over 80 data sets on ...
The Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH) which is responsible for licensing offshore wind power projects in the German Exclusive Economic Zone, has so far granted 33 licences for offshore windfarms. Considerable effort goes into ensuring the environmentally sound expansion of offshore wind ...
Offshore Energy In 2024 we completed the installation of 107 foundations for two wind farms in the German North Sea, “Gode wind 3” and “Borkum Riffgrund 3”. Once completed, these wind farms will generate enough electricity to power approximately 1.2 million German households every year. ...
Jan 31 2025 06:30 GMTSource: GlobeNewswire DEME has been awarded two contracts for the transport and installation of 112 foundations at the Nordlicht 1 and 2 offshore wind farms in Germany. Additionally, DEME also secured the contract for the scour protection at both wind farms. Attachment ...
The Germans are building a massive pipeline called AquaVentus, from their North-West coast to the Dogger Bank, to collect hydrogen created by up to 10 GW of offshore wind farms in the German Ocean or their part of the North Sea to the shore. ...
In addition to the transmission of electricity, they are responsible for the electricity feed-in of large generators such as nuclear and coal-fired power plants, or offshore wind farms. The transmission grid is mainly characterized by suspended above-surface cables with visible electricity pylons. ...
?rsted's Board of Directors has taken final investment decision (FID) on the two German offshore wind farms Gode Wind 3 (242 MW) and Borkum Riffgrund 3 (900 MW) which are expected to be commissioned in 2024 and 2025, respectively. ?rsted has signed CPPAs on Borkum Riffgrund 3 for a...
In 2011, the start-up of Bard 1 and Baltic 1 marked the first commercial offshore wind farms to be fully or partially operational in Germany (IWES, 2012). Germany has recently accelerated the development of offshore wind turbine installations, with an increase in 2019 of 17% compared to ...
This can be explained by the differences in the capacity factors of the two renewables: for wind farms, load factors range between 20% and 28% for onshore wind turbines, and 35% for offshore wind farms, while the load factors for solar PV vary from 13% to 14%. Final electricity ...
government's recently agreed coal phase-out roadmap, which stipulates that large quantities of coal capacity will be taken off the grid very late in the period up to the end year 2038, could seriously hamper offshore wind's development if power prices and CO2 emissions a...
