Cadeler A/S has signed its first Vessel Reservation Agreement with ScottishPower Renewables, a company part of the Iberdrola Group. The agreement covers the transportation and installation of 95 wind turbines which are to be installed at the East Anglia THREE wind farm.

Additionally, two Preferred Bidder Agreements have been signed for East Anglia One North and East Anglia Two projects. The total value of these agreements ranges from 90 to 225 million Euro.

For this large project Cadeler will deploy both one of its O-class vessels featuring the new crane, as well as one of the two newbuild X-class vessels. Cadeler is currently in the process of building two new X-class vessels and aim to have the first newbuild ready for operation by the second half of 2024.

“Cadeler is very pleased to initiate a new partnership with ScottishPower Renewables. The East Anglia Hub is a massive and highly ambitious project that paves the way for the largest order we have ever had in the history of Cadeler in terms of size and scale. Our new fleet are being built with exactly these large-scale projects in mind, and it feels great to be able to see our teams showcase their experience, while putting our new vessels to good use and show their true potential,” commented Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of Cadeler.

"We’re pleased to be working with Cadeler at ScottishPower Renewables’ East Anglia Hub, as work starts apace to get our offshore windfarms up, running and supplying the country with clean, green power. Our green energy projects, including the East Anglia Hub, offer life-changing jobs, partnerships and opportunities that go well beyond local ports and towns. They offer economic and environmental benefits for communities across the country and will deliver energy security without comprising our net zero ambitions,” said Ross Ovens, Project Director for East Anglia Hub at ScottishPower Renewables.

With a capacity of 1,400 MW, East Anglia THREE was awarded a Contracts for Difference by the UK government last week as part of the fourth round of the Contracts for Difference scheme. It is part of the the East Anglia Hub being developed by ScottishPower Renewables which also includes East Anglia One North and Two. Applications for development consent for the East Anglia ONE North and East Anglia TWO offshore wind farms were approved back in April. The three projects will have a combined capacity of around 3,100 MW.

The installation of the East Anglia Hub will follow the East Anglia ONE project which was put into operation in July 2020. Located 43 km off the coasts of Lowestoft and Great Yarmouth, the £2.5 billion East Anglia ONE project is owened by ScottishPower Renewables (60%), Macquarie’s Green Investment Group (20%), The Renewables Infrastructure Group Limited (14.3%) and InfraRed Capital Partners Limited (5.7%).
