Port Esbjerg to build pre-assembly sites for offshore wind

Port Esbjerg has unveiled plans to build pre-assembly sites for future offshore wind developments. The port has already supported a number of offshore wind developments previously.

The new pre-assembly sites in Port Esbjerg are aimed to cater to new and larger turbine installation vessels and larger components that need to be assembled directly on the quayside. They are also intended to provide space for supporting activities and lay-down areas.

“We believe that establishing our own pre-assembly sites and making them available to be leased by our clients, will prepare our port for the future. It is an example of how we wish to provide optimal flexibility for our clients and partners,” said the CEO of Port Esbjerg, Dennis Jul Pedersen.

Siemens Gamesa has been involved in the development of the setup and Anders Midskov, Port Operations Manager for Siemens Gamesa in Esbjerg, commented: “Over many years, Siemens Gamesa and Port Esbjerg have had a very professional and fruitful collaboration on the pre-assembly of wind turbines for offshore wind farms. For the port’s future infrastructure, we appreciate that the port has involved us early on to get our input for the ideal future setup, and it has had a significant positive impact for Siemens Gamesa’s operations at the port. We look forward to continuing working together with Port of Esbjerg, where Siemens Gamesa will pre-assemble and install 1.8 GW over the next roughly two years.”
