en.Wedoany.com Reported - IQIP, EnBW, and Vattenfall plan to use EQ-Piling technology for full-scale offshore monopile installation at the Dreekant wind farm in Germany. The project is expected to commence within the next month, pending final permits.

IQIP has commissioned DEME's vessel "Orion" to carry out the installation. The test aims to verify effective noise reduction without the need for additional bubble curtains, while also reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The technology builds on previous near-shore demonstrations at Maasvlakte 2 in Rotterdam. Vattenfall is participating in the project as an alliance partner.

IQIP CEO Robert Diepenbroek stated: "We are highly confident in the potential and commercial application of this technology. Through full-scale monopile installation, we will demonstrate that EQ-Piling is indeed as significantly quieter as promised." He added: "By eliminating the need for additional bubble curtains and the supporting vessels, we will achieve carbon dioxide reductions." Cyril Moss, Project Director for Vattenfall's Nordlicht I and II, said: "At Vattenfall, we see offshore wind as a key driver of the energy transition through European industrial capabilities and genuine innovation."
