Nordsee Ost offshore wind farm
Exclusive economic zone of Germany in the North Sea, Germany
The 1811th largest power station in the world
Nordsee-Ost offshore wind farm is an offshore wind farm in operation in the eastern part of the North Sea German sector. The project was developed by RWE Innogy, a subsidiary of RWE. The wind farm consists of 48 turbines with a total capacity of 295 MW. The 6.15 MW turbines were provided by REpower. Steel foundations for generators were supplied by Aker Verdal. Power converters were supplied by Woodward Governor Company. A consortium of Siemens and Prysmian built the high-voltage direct current submarine cable from the wind farm to the German transmission system operated by Transpower, a subsidiary of TenneT. Delays in power line construction by Dutch TenneT delayed its operational start. On 11 May 2015 the wind farm was officially put into operation.
