Norwegian offshore wind power giant Havfram announced that it has successfully signed a contract to provide transportation and installation services for offshore wind turbines for the Nordlicht I and II wind power projects in the North Sea of Germany, working together with Vattenfall and BASF to build a new chapter in green energy. This cooperation involves the deployment of 112 Vestas V236-15.0 MW giant offshore wind turbines, demonstrating Havfram's strong capabilities in the field of offshore wind power.

The Nordlicht offshore wind power cluster is located in the vast sea area 85 kilometers north of Borkum Island, divided into two parts, I and II, with a total installed capacity of nearly 1.6GW. Among them, Project I will start wind turbine installation in the summer of 2027, while Project II will follow closely and is expected to start in the summer of 2028. The cluster is expected to start construction in 2026 and be fully operational by 2028, with an annual power generation of over 6 terawatt hours, sufficient to meet the electricity needs of approximately 1.6 million German households. It has significant implications for reducing carbon emissions and strengthening regional green energy infrastructure.

To achieve this goal, Havfram is accelerating the construction of its advanced wind power installation fleet, with four NG20000X vessels being particularly noteworthy. The first "Norse Wind" is scheduled to be delivered in August 2025, followed closely by the "Norse Energi" which will also join the fleet by the end of the fourth quarter of the same year. These ships are equipped with 3250 ton heavy-duty cranes and advanced battery hybrid power systems, capable of handling water operations up to 70 meters deep. They can easily install heavyweight XXL single pile and ultra large wind turbines, significantly improving project execution efficiency and environmental performance. It is expected that the carbon emissions per megawatt installation will be reduced by more than 70%. (This article is from the official website of Jian Dao: www.seetao.com.
