en.Wedoany.com Reported - German steelmaker Dillinger has shipped the final monopile foundation for Dominion Energy's Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind Project across the Atlantic. Located off the coast of Virginia Beach, this project is the largest offshore wind farm under construction in the United States, with a planned installed capacity of 2.6 gigawatts, consisting of 176 turbines.

As a long-term supplier of materials for offshore wind foundations, Dillinger provided 211,000 tons of high-quality heavy plates for this project, used to manufacture 176 monopile foundations. After these steel plates are processed into monopile foundations, they will support the turbines standing on the seabed. According to public information, all 176 monopile foundations for the project have been installed. Dominion Energy stated that the first commercial turbine has begun grid-connected power generation, with overall project progress at approximately 70%, and it is expected to be fully completed and operational by the end of 2026.

The steel plate specifications for the monopile foundations supplied by Dillinger meet the project's stringent requirements. With the delivery of the final monopile foundation, offshore construction for the project will proceed to the subsequent installation phase.
