🎂 What an incredible journey for the WindFloat Atlantic project as it celebrates its fourth anniversary with impressive achievements! The WindFloat Atlantic project: 💚 Supplies clean, renewable energy to 25,000 homes annually, prevents over 33,000 tons of CO2 emissions each year, and has created 1,500 jobs. ⭐ Consistently exceeded power expectations, reaching a cumulative production of 320 GWh - beyond initial expectations. 🌊 Had no significant adverse effects on marine mammals or endangered bird species, with 270 species successfully coexisting with the project according to ongoing surveys. The project’s WindFloat® platforms, designed by Principle Power, have demonstrated resilience in extreme weather conditions, including Storm Ciaran, where the platform withstood 20-meter waves and wind gusts of 139 km/h without any structural damage. Additionally, our teams have accomplished zero lost time injuries since we began our internal Health & Safety reporting process. These achievements are made possible through the expertise of its experienced shareholders and contractors, namely the developer WindPlus (majority-owned subsidiary of OW Ocean Winds), Principle Power (technology developer) and Vestas (turbine manufacturer). Congratulations to all and here’s to continued success!

Less than three months after a cable failure on one of the two export cables, Gemini Windpark is in full operation again. A huge achievement of the entire Gemini team, that could not have been reached without a dedicated circle of contractors. A real team effort!   #geminiwindpark #rgprojecten #ensol #siemensgamesa #vanoord #nkt #omexom #WIND #offshorewind

NXGEN have completed the load-in of a 1,300Te LQ module in The Netherlands. This project was awarded with short notice and required the team to mobilise quickly, whilst working closely with KOOLE Contractors to ensure that the living quarter module was loaded-in safely and to schedule.   NXGEN provided 60 axle lines of SPMT, two Z390 power packs, linkspan and associated auxiliary equipment to complete the operation. The team also supported with the load-in engineering works and the marine preparation in the UK prior to sail away. #spmt #specialisttransport #engineering #loadin

The Importance of Precision Bolting in Wind Energy Projects In the rapidly expanding wind energy sector, ensuring the accurate installation and maintenance of wind turbines is critical to long-term efficiency and safety. Bolting plays a fundamental role in assembling these massive structures, particularly in securing the key components such as the base of the tower, the nacelle, and the blades. #WindEnergy #RenewableEnergy #BoltingTechnology #OnshoreWind #OffshoreWind #TurbineMaintenance #GreenTech #SustainableEnergy Enerpac Enerpac Tool Group HTL Group

At Harlyn, we’ve just signed an agreement with Moray Offshore Windfarm (Moray West) Ltd to begin a new project. We’re excited to begin work on the project, where we’ll be collecting spare inter array cables to be used at the windfarm and storing them at our facility in Blyth. We’re delighted to continue our work on the Moray West project. Previously, we transported both substations for the project and carried out the monopile cleaning infield. (Pictures below) This continues our successful relationship with Moray West, and we’re looking forward to getting started. #WeMoveIncredible
