XceCo has appointed Deutsche Windtechnik Offshore (DWT) to provide operations and maintenance (O&M) services for the Lynn & Inner Dowsing (LID) offshore wind farms under a five-year contract starting on 1 April 2027. The agreement covers all 54 Siemens SWT-3.6-107 wind turbines, with a combined installed capacity of 194.4 MW.
Operational since 2009, Lynn & Inner Dowsing consists of two adjacent wind farms, each with 27 turbines, located approximately 5 km off the coast of Lincolnshire, near Skegness, UK. The wind farms have historically followed a self-perform servicing model, with XceCo overseeing operations and maintenance in its role as asset manager.
Mobilisation is underway ahead of the contract start. This includes the technical and operational handover, workforce integration, and the transfer of operating processes, systems and facilities. Following the transfer of O&M responsibilities to DWT, XceCo will continue to act as asset manager.
