Cadeler A/S signs contract with Dutch contractor Van Oord to assist in executing offshore wind project Hollandse Kust Noord

Cadeler A/S, a key supplier of marine installation and engineering services in the offshore wind industry, has been chosen as partner by the Dutch marine contractor Van Oord to assist in executing yet another wind farm project off the coast of the Netherlands. The Hollandse Kust Noord project consisting of 69 x 11MW turbines is scheduled for completion in 2023. Upon completion, the capacity of the wind farm will reach 759 MW, generating at least 3.3 TWh per year, equal to 2.8% of the Dutch electricity demand. The project at the Hollandse Kust Noord Wind Farm Site is developed and operated by CrossWind, a joint venture between Shell and Eneco. Cadeler's CEO, Mikkel Gleerup, says: "The fact that Van Oord has once again chosen Cadeler as a partner shows a high level of trust in our abilities and recognizes the deep competences gathered from almost a decade of similar complicated projects, many of them off the coast of The Netherlands. We will bring all this to Hollandse Kust Noord, thereby enabling Van Oord and CrossWind to successfully complete this exciting project in a timely and safe manner. We are furthermore pleased to be able to offer the services of our vessel Wind Osprey to assist Van Oord with this project. Wind Osprey is scheduled to replace the main crane following the completion of this project, so the timing is perfect both for our customer and for us." Last year, Cadeler announced another contract set to be executed in 2022-2023 off the Dutch coast, at the Hollandse Kust Zuid wind farm. This project consists of 140 of the same 11MW Siemens-Gamesa turbines that are also due to be installed at the Hollandse Kust Noord windfarm project.
