Endless Party: MHI Vestas Celebrates Second Opening of an Offshore Wind Farm Within Seven Days
50 turbines were built at a distance of 47 kilometers off the Belgian coast to supply electricity to 188,000 households. Jens Tommerup, CEO of MHI Vestas, said at the opening: "Today is an exciting day for MHI Vestas as we celebrate the opening of the Nobelwind offshore wind park. We are grateful to Parkwind for the opportunity to deploy 50 of our V112-3.3 MW turbines off the coast of Belgium."
This marks the third collaboration between MHI Vestas and Parkwind after the offshore farms of Belwind (165 MW) and Nordwind (216 MW) were jointly installed in Belgian waters. Thus, MHI Vestas was able to make a significant contribution to reducing the costs of offshore wind in Belgium making state aid dispensable.
