Vestas will supply 53 V236-15.0 MW wind turbines and is responsible for the supply, delivery and commissioning of the wind turbines. Upon completion, Vestas will service the assets under a 5-year comprehensive service agreement followed by a long-term operational support agreement.
Nils de Baar, President of Vestas for Northern and Central Europe, says: “OranjeWind sets a high bar for technological innovations and sustainability, and we are delighted to offer our solutions, including our flagship offshore wind turbine, for this project in the Netherlands. Our entire team looks forward to working together with the OranjeWind project team on this exciting and ambitious wind farm in the North Sea.”
RWE and TotalEnergies announced last week that they will enter into a 50/50 partnership to deliver the OranjeWind offshore wind project. The project has an installed capacity of 795 MW; a grid connection capacity of 760 MW and excess capacity of 35 MW to use the connection capacity as efficiently as possible, even when production is lower.
The project site is located about 53 km from the Dutch coast in the North Sea. Installation of wind turbines is expected to begin in 2027.
