OW Ocean Winds

The wind is blowing in good news from our Îles d'Yeu and Noirmoutier project: the offshore substation is installed! 🎉 Yesterday, the installation of the offshore substation on the jacket foundation, which was also installed this week, was completed. Both works were carried out by our supplier, DEME Group. The offshore substation, designed by the local supplier Chantiers de l'Atlantique, weighs around 2,500 tonnes and measures 39 metres long, 25.5 metres wide, and 18 metres high. 🏗 At the same time, the installation of the project's 61 monopiles, which began at the end of May, is continuing successfully, getting closer day by day to the project's operation phase! ⚡ What a week to be #ProudtobeOW! #renewableenergy #offshorewind 📷 Patrick Sordoillet - Ulrich Wirrwa

🎉 What a great way to start the week!! We are happy to announce the installation of the offshore substation jacket of our Îles d'Yeu et Noirmoutier project! This jacket, manufactured by our supplier Navantia Seanergies, in Spain, was transported to the Port Atlantique La Rochelle at the beginning of June, from where DEME Group has proceeded to its successful installation offshore, and it is the foundation of our electrical offshore substation, constructed by our local supplier Chantiers de l'Atlantique. 🏗 After announcing last week the installation of the first monopile of the project, at OW Ocean Winds, we are very proud to see our project advancing successfully, thanks to a committed and talented team!! Good news will be coming in the next months from Îles d'Yeu et Noirmoutier! Stay tuned! 🌬 #ProudtobeOW #renewableenergy #offshorewind

🌊 The strength of the ocean is a testament to the power and potential of nature to change the world – a force that we, at OW Ocean Winds, harness. For us, the #ocean forms part of our identity. It is our key partner, with whom, even on the toughest days, we stand steady and united as one: a great force already changing the world. 🌍 Without the oceans, OW Ocean Winds would not be here, and so it is our responsibility to protect them. Join us on this journey to protect and unlock the full power of the ocean and work together for a brighter, more sustainable tomorrow. 🌬 Happy World Oceans Day! 🌊 #ProudtobeOW #renewableenergy #sustainability #offshorewind #worldoceansday

🌬 Setting the foundations for a more sustainable future: the first monopile of our îles d'Yeu et Noirmoutier project has been successfully installed!! This milestone marks a key moment in the construction phase of our 500MW Îles d'Yeu et Noirmoutier project - Les Éoliennes en Mer Services-, marking the start of the offshore installation phase. 🏗 Hand in hand with our supplier, DEME Group, we will carry out the installation of the 61 monopiles that will give electricity to more than 800,000 people. 🔍 And did you know? Not all the monopiles have the same height, but vary from 45 to 68 meters, to adapt to the different depths of the wind farm's installation area! We couldn't be prouder to see that our capacity under construction, 1.9 GW out of the nearly 18GW secured total portfolio, is progressing successfully despite the current sector challenges. 💪 Once again, thanks to our great and talented OW team that makes it possible, at OW, we deliver.

📸 Capturing greatness! See how our jacket for the offshore substation for our French île d'Yeu et Noirmoutier project Les Éoliennes en Mer Services is heading to Port Atlantique La Rochelle from Puerto Real!   During the transit, the jacket had to pass under the "Puente de La Constitución de 1812" in Cádiz (Spain), for which the barge had to be ballasted and could only be towed at low tide. 🚢   This 64-metre jacket was completed and towed from Puerto Real (Cádiz), Navantia Seanergies's construction yard, to Port Atlantique La Rochelle, and the project's offshore substation will be installed on it, delivered by French supplier Atlantique Offshore Energy at the beginning of May!    This operation required complex, detailed engineering, and coordination with many different authorities, which resulted in a successful operation!👏   Thank you to the hard work of our teams, and the collaboration of our suppliers!⚡   #ProudtobeOW #renewableenergy #offshorewind 📹 Tiago Bettencourt de Brito

🌟 Double Victory at Tamarindo's Wind Investment Awards: OW Ocean Winds Clinches Offshore Wind Developer of the Year and Project Finance of the Year with our Moray West project!   Last evening, Ocean Winds basked in the glory of not one but two remarkable achievements at the Wind Investment Awards, organized by Tamarindo!    This recognition is deeply appreciated and comes after another 2 awards received from PFI -  marking a total of 4 awards so far in 2024! These accolades not only celebrate our triumphs but also acknowledge the skills, professionalism, and dedication of every member of the OW family. 👏   This serves as a reflection of the excellence and concerted efforts of the entire OW team. These awards resonate even more profoundly following our successful financial endeavors, wherein we secured a substantial investment of 7.4 billion euros for projects like Moray West, Dieppe-Le Tréport, and îles d’Yeu et de Noirmoutier - Les Éoliennes en Mer Services - in April 2023 alone.   In the midst of challenging circumstances within the offshore wind sector, OW has showcased resilience and expertise, as well as positioned itself as a leader in the sector.   Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to each and every individual who has contributed to our journey. It's a privilege to be part of such an exceptional team. Let's forge ahead, breaking barriers and achieving even greater heights together! 💪 Discover more 👉 https://lnkd.in/eAjz-hyP   #ProudtobeOW #OffshoreWind #GlobalSponsorOfTheYear #ProjectFinanceoftheYear

Today is the International Day of Light💡, and we want to highlight and celebrate how we are lighting up and providing clean energy to the world through offshore wind, as OW Ocean Winds is on track to power more than 14 million homes!!⚡ But over time, we have come to realise that, although our employees know all about how the energy we generate with our offshore wind farms brings light into millions of homes, it is not so easy to understand for the children of our employees!👧👦 That's why, we decided to write a children's book, "Where does the light come from?", making it easier for them to discover how their parents are participating in the fight against climate change and helping to light up the world!🌍 Many of the children of our OW Ocean Winds team have already started to dive into our book!📖 So, take a look at the next generation of offshore wind employees!🌬 #ProudtobeOW #renewableenergy #offshorewind #education

🚢 On route! OW Ocean Winds receives the first jacket from Navantia Seanergies for our Îles d'Yeu et Noirmoutier project!    This structure, measuring 64 metres and 1,700 tonnes, will be the fixed foundation for the offshore substation of our wind farm, and it's on its way to our project! 👏   From its factory in Puerto Real, the Spanish company Navantia Seanergies is also responsible for the construction of the same structure for the neighbouring French project, Dieppe Le Tréport, and its 62 jackets, which will be developed at Navantia's Fene factory.   Yesterday, our CEO, Bautista Rodríguez Sánchez, had the opportunity to visit the factory to celebrate this milestone and breakthrough, and reflect on our support for the development of the national supply chain towards an international level, and Spain's readiness to develop offshore wind energy! 🌬   In this context, a reserved capacity agreement was signed last year with Navantia Seanergies, to manufacture elements for future offshore wind farms, including floating structures for future wind farms in Spain, Portugal, and other European countries between 2027 and 2031 - providing stability and sustainability to our business.   At OW, we are very excited to see the advancement of our projects while making a positive impact on the Spanish and European economies!
