An offshore wind consortium consisting of RWE Renewables, Equinor and Hydro Rein, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Windport AS, a supplier of port facilities in the Mandal area, Norway.
RWE Renewables, Equinor and Hydro REIN jointly aim to develop a large-scale bottom-fixed offshore wind farm in the Sørlige Nordsjø II area in the North Sea. Windport, a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Ocean Technology, aim to provide port facilities for the development and construction phase of the wind farm. In the agreement signed with Windport, the parties have agreed to exchange and discuss information to assess feasibility for a potential industrial development, related to such port facilities. The agreement does not cover operations and maintenance base facilities. This is covered in a separate process towards potential Norwegian harbor locations.
