Parkwind has applied for approval of changes to the original 2014 consents for the Arcadis Ost 1 offshore wind farm from the State offices for agriculture and environment for Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

Changes include the use of 28 V174-9.5MW turbines as opposed to 58 Haliade 6MW turbines; deployment of monopiles instead of jackets; a revised turbine layout; a reduction in the length of array cables from 79km to 40km; and changes to substation design including a monopile foundation as opposed to a jacket.

The application and the associated documents, including the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report, are available for inspection until 19th February 2020.

Located approximately 19 km northeast of the island RĂ¼gen, the wind farm is scheduled to reach financial close this year, with full operations from 2023.
