The erection of 80 AREVA wind turbines was successfully completed at the Global Tech I wind farm with the last rotor star installation finalised Friday August 29.
The wind farm of roughly 41 square kilometres is located 100 kilometres off the coast in the German North Sea. AREVA’s 5 Megawatt M5000-116 turbines were manufactured at the Group’s Bremerhaven and Stade sites, in northern Germany. The commissioning of turbines can begin when the grid connection is available. The Group’s installed base now reaches 630 MW for offshore wind.
