RWE to Build Two Wind Farms in North Sea off German Coast
By David Sachs
RWE will build two new wind farms in the North Sea off of the German coast, expanding its portfolio of offshore energy production.
The German energy firm said Monday that construction on the first project will start in 2025 and finish in 2026 with a capacity of 660 megawatts. The firm will start building the second wind farm, which will generate up to 900 megawatts, in 2027, with operations beginning in 2029.
Combined, the projects, dubbed Nordseecluster, will consist of 104 wind turbines that produce 6.5 terawatt hours of green electricity a year, RWE said.
The wind farms, which will be about 50 kilometers north of the island of Juist, will give the company eight wind farms off the German coast.
"This will contribute in particular to the decarbonization of industry in our home market," Chief Executive Sven Utermoehlen said.
