en.Wedoany.com Reported - Danish offshore wind installation company Cadeler announced on June 12, 2026, that it has completed the installation of all 100 turbines at the Sofia Offshore Wind Farm in the UK North Sea. Developed by RWE, the project is located off the northeast coast of the UK with a total installed capacity of 1.4 GW. This milestone marks the completion of turbine transportation and installation work.

The Sofia Offshore Wind Farm uses 100 Siemens Gamesa SG 14-222 offshore wind turbines. Cadeler is responsible for the transportation and installation of all turbines, utilizing the installation vessel Wind Peak. Delivered in August 2024, the vessel mobilized from the Port of Hull in March 2025, transporting and installing large turbine components in batches, ultimately completing the installation of the 100th turbine.

The project developer disclosed that the Sofia Offshore Wind Farm still needs to proceed with testing and commissioning of the offshore high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission system, with subsequent turbines to be connected to the relevant transmission system. Once completed, the project is expected to meet the annual electricity needs of approximately 1.2 million UK households. As the UK offshore wind project enters the subsequent commissioning phase, grid connection and operational preparation work will continue to be refined.
