Skyborn Renewables (Skyborn) is advancing the 945 MW Gennaker offshore wind project with an updated master supply agreement signed with Siemens Gamesa.
The agreement involves the delivery of 63 SG 14-236 DD wind turbines, each with a capacity of 15MW and a rotor diameter of 236 metres. This replaces the 2022 master supply agreement, which provided for the delivery of 103 SG 8.0-167 DD Siemens Gamesa wind turbines with a capacity of 9 MW.
The Gennaker project continues to progress, with the main soil investigation nearing completion, the foundation design contract signed, and responses to tenders for other main wind farm components and installation vessels under review. Located approximately 15 kilometres north of the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula, the project area is within a designated priority zone for offshore wind energy in the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania coastal sea. Skyborn secured the initial building permit for the Gennaker site in May 2019 and maintains site exclusivity for development. Offshore construction works are planned to commence in 2027.
