“With an total capability of round 1.6 gigawatts, it’s the largest wind venture at present being constructed off the German coast. We’d like an infinite quantity of space for storing and a very good port infrastructure for the development course of – each of which can be found on the Buss Terminal Eemshaven. We’re at present creating synergies by additionally dealing with the foundations for our Danish offshore wind farm Thor at this port and can use it as the bottom for our Dutch OranjeWind venture as effectively.”
