Standing nearly 54 meters tall and weighing approximately 1,900 tonnes, the jacket is a critical component for the wind farm’s infrastructure. Navantia Seanergies noted that this is the second jacket commissioned by Ocean Winds under a contract signed in 2022. The first jacket, delivered a year ago, is now operational at the Îles d’Yeu et de Noirmoutier (EMYN) offshore wind farm in France.
The company has a well-established partnership with Ocean Winds, having collaborated with Windar Renovables to construct the WindFloat, the first floating structure installed on the Iberian Peninsula. This structure, operational for five years, marks a significant milestone in offshore wind technology. Navantia Seanergies highlighted this achievement, stating: “Navantia Seanergies has a long-standing relationship with Ocean Winds, having built – together with partner Windar Renovables – the first floating structure to be installed on the Iberian Peninsula, WindFloat, which is now celebrating five years of operation.”
In addition to the substation jacket, Navantia Seanergies is currently manufacturing 62 wind turbine jackets at its Fene facility for the Dieppe Le Tréport offshore wind farm. This large-scale production underscores the company’s role in advancing renewable energy infrastructure across Europe. Meanwhile, the Puerto Real shipyard has secured a capacity reservation agreement to support the ongoing construction of offshore wind components, ensuring continued contributions to the sector.
These efforts reflect Navantia Seanergies’ commitment to sustainable energy development, supporting the growth of offshore wind projects that enhance energy production while reducing environmental impact. The Dieppe Le Tréport wind farm, once fully operational, will contribute significantly to France’s renewable energy goals, providing clean power to the region.
