Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind Project 1 selects Ramboll to design turbine foundations

Located approximately 10-20 miles off the coast of Atlantic City, New Jersey, the project will generate enough clean energy to power more than 700,000 homes and bring $848 million in guaranteed local economic benefits to the state.

This is the largest single project in New Jersey and third largest in the United States. Atlantic Shores is also making significant economic development investments, including a comprehensive job training program and an innovative 10 MW green hydrogen pilot.

Ramboll is a global leader in the design of offshore wind turbine foundations and will contribute its decades of experience and knowledge in the offshore wind industry to the design of wind turbine foundations for Atlantic Shores Project 1.

Rain Byars, Technical & Delivery Director for Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind, said:

“Atlantic Shores Project 1 is thrilled to partner with Ramboll on our foundation design and helping us set industry benchmarks for safety, reliability, and efficiency. Ramboll is the right choice to perform this critical work as Atlantic Shores literally lays the foundation for New Jersey’s clean energy transition. With our recent announcement of Vestas as preferred turbine supplier, adding the expertise and experience of Ramboll to our 1.5 GW offshore wind project is yet another vote of confidence in Atlantic Shores Project 1 and Atlantic Shores’ entire 5+ GW portfolio.”

Ramboll will provide a comprehensive design service to be led by a group of experts across the United States and Europe. This work will accelerate the deployment of offshore wind resources and support New Jersey’s thriving clean energy economy by creating jobs and local employment opportunities over the life of the project.
