HOCHTIEF to build next offshore wind farm for EUR 175 million
Global Tech I including 80 plants to be created northwest of Cuxhaven in the North Sea + + + Energy suppliers as client
In the wind field 110 kilometers northwest of Cuxhaven, HOCHTIEF will first anchor 80 foundations, each with a weight of 950 tons, in the 40-meter-deep sea bed. The 5-megawatt wind wheels will then be mounted using Group-owned special platforms and reach 150 meters out of the water. In this project, BELUGA HOCHTIEF Offshore‘s special jack-up vessel will be used for the first time. HOCHTIEF also has developed a tailor-made logistics concept which allows construction time to be reduced significantly. Henner Mahlstedt, CEO of HOCHTIEF Construction: "With our competence and the high quality of our services, we make an important contribution to the energy supply of the future." The Group expects annual sales of almost half a million euros from its entire offshore business. www.hochtief.de
