Cadeler has successfully completed the installation of the very first Vestas 15MW turbine at the Baltic Power Offshore Wind Farm in the Baltic Sea – marking the beginning of another significant wind farm project.
Over the coming months, Cadeler’s Wind Osprey and her crew will carry out the transport and installation of all the 76 offshore wind turbines from the Port of Rønne in Bornholm, Denmark.
When fully commissioned next year, the 1.2 GW wind farm will become Poland’s first offshore wind farm, powering over 1.5 million Polish households, covering 3% of the country’s electricity demand, and estimated to save 2.8 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions every year.
With blades measuring 115 metres and a total height exceeding 260 metres, the Vestas V236-15.0 MW model can produce up to 80 GWh of energy per year. This is one of the very first times these impressive next-generation turbines are being installed in European waters.
