Vestas Secures 900 MW Offshore Deal 

Vestas has received a firm order from RWE for the 900 MW Nordseecluster B offshore wind project in Germany, marking another milestone in the development of Europe’s offshore wind energy. This project will feature 60 of Vestas’ V236-15.0 MW wind turbines and builds upon a previous agreement for the 660 MW Nordseecluster A, announced in June 2024.

As part of the agreement, Vestas will oversee the supply, delivery, and commissioning of the turbines, followed by a 5-year service agreement and a long-term operational support contract to ensure optimal performance of the asset.

Located approximately 50 km north of the island of Juist in the German North Sea, the Nordseecluster is being implemented in two phases. Nordseecluster A will consist of 44 turbines, while Nordseecluster B will add 60, bringing the total combined capacity of the project to 1.56 GW.

“Vestas is proud to contribute to this landmark project for Europe’s offshore wind sector, reflecting our commitment to advancing clean energy solutions,” said Nils de Baar, President of Vestas Northern & Central Europe. “Our gratitude goes to RWE for years of excellent collaboration, and we look forward to the Nordseecluster’s successful delivery and helping drive the transition toward a more sustainable future.”

Thomas Michel, COO of RWE Offshore Wind, highlighted the strategic importance of the project: “With Nordseecluster B, we’re expanding our portfolio of offshore wind projects under execution to a total capacity of 4.8 GW. Close collaboration with supply chain partners like Vestas is essential to delivering this ambitious program, and we’re excited to work together on Nordseecluster.”

Wind turbine installation for Nordseecluster B is scheduled to begin in 2028, with commercial operations expected by early 2029. Once operational, the Nordseecluster will significantly contribute to Germany’s renewable energy targets and bolster Europe’s offshore wind capacity, further driving the clean energy transition.
