E.ON Starts Construction of Windanker Offshore Wind Project in German Baltic Sea

E.ON has begun construction of the Windanker offshore wind project in the German Baltic Sea. The first of 21 monopiles has been installed, marking the start of Iberdrola's third major offshore wind project in the region.

The Windanker project is a sustainable investment led by Iberdrola Germany, according to CEO Felipe Montero. It brings advanced offshore technology to the German sea, creating jobs and strengthening ties between German and Spanish industries.

The 315 MW Windanker wind farm will feature Siemens Gamesa 15 MW turbines, all scheduled to be operational by 2026. It joins Iberdrola's existing Baltic Sea hub, which includes the 350 MW Wikinger wind farm and the recently commissioned 476 MW Baltic Eagle.

Van Oord's heavy-lift installation vessel Svanen is installing the monopiles at the site, 38 kilometers northeast of Rügen. The monopiles are manufactured by Navantia and Windar Renovables under a framework agreement with Iberdrola.

The Windanker offshore wind farm, with an investment of over EUR 1 billion, is set to significantly boost Iberdrola's Baltic Sea hub to over 1.1 GW. Once operational, it will contribute to Germany's renewable energy goals and create further opportunities for regional collaboration.
