DEME Offshore has installed the 100th monopile foundation at the 165-turbine Hornsea Two wind farm offshore UK.
165 monopiles and transition pieces will be installed in preparation for the 8 MW turbines off the UK coast.
“This is the third wind farm project where DEME Offshore is responsible for the installation of more than 100 foundations. The heaviest piles at Hornsea Two weigh around 1,250 tonnes and have a diameter of 9.5 m. The highest safety standards, production/supply chain efficiency, and innovation are all vital ingredients to ensure success at this large-scale project, alongside a strong partnership with our client Ørsted.”
Hornsea Two will generate a staggering 1.4 GW of clean energy and is set to become the largest offshore wind farm in the world.
