The Taranto wind farm will have a capacity of 30 MW and an estimated output of 58,000 MWh per year. It is located near the harbour of Taranto, Italy and will be equipped with turbines by Chinese manufacturer Ming Yang Smart Energy.

This week the MPI Resolution has set sail to Italy to install the monopiles, secondary steel and the wind turbines generators, Van Oord said. The vessel is perfectly suitable for the works in the Mediterranean Sea because it can handle both the very shallow and deeper water locations as water depths vary from 4 to 18 metres. During the pile driving activities, Van Oord deploys its innovative FaunaGuard system. This acoustic device deters dolphins by using special underwater acoustics.
