en.Wedoany.com Reported - German energy company RWE has completed the installation of the first wind turbine at the Nordseecluster offshore wind project in the North Sea. Located approximately 50 kilometers north of the German island of Juist, the project has a total planned capacity of 1.6 GW. The initial construction phase, Nordseecluster A, has an installed capacity of 660 MW.

Nordseecluster A plans to install 44 Vestas offshore wind turbines, each with a maximum capacity of 15 MW, a hub height of 145 meters, and blade length of 115 meters. The first 15 MW turbine was lifted by DEME's installation vessel Norse Wind, which can transport and install five turbine components per operational cycle. According to the project schedule, all 44 turbines are expected to be installed by the end of 2026.

The German North Sea wind project is being implemented in two phases. Nordseecluster A is scheduled to be fully operational by early 2027; Nordseecluster B will add 900 MW of capacity, expected to begin contributing power generation from early 2029. Once fully completed, the project is projected to generate approximately 6.5 TWh of electricity annually. With the installation of the first 15 MW turbine, the German North Sea wind project has entered the batch turbine installation phase.
