Sif Holding (Sif) has announced that it is studying the feasibility of an increase in manufacturing capabilities and capacity. Sif will initially target max 11.5-meter diameter monopiles with 120-meter length and average weights up to 2500 tons per unit while meeting the pace of 200 monopiles per year.
In this envisaged new manufacturing set-up, Sif takes into account a further possible step-up to 15-meter diameter. To be production-ready at the end of 2024, it requires a substantial extension of Sif’s Dutch facilities in Rotterdam and the adjustment of existing facilities in Roermond. The final investment decision is targeted for July 2022.
