Hochtief Construction has been awarded the contract for another offshore wind farm. From mid-2012, the Hochtief subsidiary is expected to start constructing the wind farm Global Tech I in the German North Sea.
The contract volume is € 175 million. The client of the wind farm is the project company Global Tech I Offshore Wind in which several energy suppliers, energy trading companies and a number of other companies have a share. The company will first anchor 80 foundations, each with a weight of 950 tons, in the 40-meter-deep sea bed. The 5MW wind turbines will then be mounted using group owned special platforms and reach 150 meters out of the water. Beluga Hochtief Offshore's special jack-up vessel will be used for the first time.
