Kriegers Flak produces power

Vattenfall has announced that the Kriegers Flak offshore wind farm has produced first power. The project is poised to be the largest offshore wind farm in Denmark.

The announcement follows the Danish Energy Agency granting the licence to produce electricity, last month. Despite the restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the construction of Kriegers Flak is generally proceeding according to plan and the project is scheduled to be fully operational by the end of 2021 at the latest.

Located 15-40 km offshore in the Danish Baltic Sea, the Kriegers Flak wind farm is set to feature 72 Siemens Gamesa SG 8.0-167 DD turbines, each with a rotor diameter of 167 metres and tip height of 188 metres. The individual parts of the turbines are assembled at Port of Roenne on the Danish island of Bornholm. They are shipped in sets of four to the construction site. The 72 turbines will be commissioned on an ongoing basis as they are installed.

Vattenfall secured rights to the 604.8 MW project in November 2016, with a winning bid of EUR 49.9 per MWh. Kriegers Flak is expected to increase the Danish production of wind energy by 16 per cent or enough to cover the annual electricity consumption of approximately 600,000 Danish households.
