Wind Industry Profile of
Ramboll to design turbine foundations for Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind Project 1
The wind farm will be located 10-20 miles off the coast of Atlantic City, New Jersey, and will generate enough clean energy to power more than 700,000 homes. It will also bring $848 million in guaranteed local economic benefits to the state. This is the largest single project in New Jersey and third largest in the United States, the company announced.
Ramboll will design the offshore wind turbine foundations and will accelerate the deployment of offshore wind resources and support New Jersey’s thriving clean energy economy by creating jobs and local employment opportunities over the life of the project.
“Atlantic Shores Project 1 is thrilled to partner with Ramboll on our foundation design and helping us set industry benchmarks for safety, reliability, and efficiency,” said Rain Byars, Technical & Delivery Director for Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind. “Ramboll is the right choice to perform this critical work as Atlantic Shores literally lays the foundation for New Jersey’s clean energy transition. With our recent announcement of Vestas as preferred turbine supplier, adding the expertise and experience of Ramboll to our 1.5 GW offshore wind project is yet another vote of confidence in Atlantic Shores Project 1 and Atlantic Shores’ entire 5+ GW portfolio.”
