The first V164-9.5 MW turbine by MHI Vestas is now generating power and delivering renewable electricity into the Dutch grid. So far 36 of 77 turbines were installed and will undergo further initial tests in the coming weeks. It is expected that one additional turbine will become operational per day in the coming weeks. The whole wind farm will be fully installed in October and generate 3,000 gigawatt hours (GWh) per year, enough to power more than 825,000 Dutch households.

“I am proud of the team that has managed the safe execution and the commissioning phase, achieving first power on time,” says Roeland Borsboom, Project Director and CEO for Blauwwind. "Keeping a project of this scale and complexity on track in these challenging times can only be managed through good collaboration and flexibility. The delivery of First Power has been achieved in close cooperation with partners Van Oord, MHI Vestas and TenneT, who has provided grid readiness one month ahead of time."
