Vestas has received a firm wind turbine order for the 795 MW OranjeWind offshore wind farm, formerly known as Hollandse Kust West VII, in the Netherlands. Vestas will be supplying 53 V236-15.0 MW wind turbines and is responsible for the supply, delivery, and commissioning of the turbines. Upon completion, Vestas will service the assets under a comprehensive 5-year service agreement followed by a long-term operational support agreement.
RWE and TotalEnergies announced a week ago that they were entering a 50/50 partnership to deliver the OranjeWind offshore wind project. The project, with its installed capacity of 795 MW, has a grid connection capacity of 760 MW and an excess capacity of 35 MW in order to use the connection capacity as efficiently as possible, even when production is lower.
The project site is located around 53 km off the Dutch coast in the North Sea. Wind turbine installation is expected to start in 2027.
