RWE selects HSM Offshore Energy as preferred supplier for Denmark’s largest THOR offshore wind farm

HSM Offshore Energy, located in Schiedam, The Netherlands is selected as preferred supplier for the engineering, procurement, construction, installation and commissioning of the offshore high voltage substation including MV/ HV package and it’s jacket foundation.

RWE will build the Thor wind farm off the Danish west coast – approximately 22 kilometres from Thorsminde on the west coast of Jutland. With a planned capacity of 1,000 megawatts (MW), Thor will be Denmark’s largest offshore wind farm to date. Thor would be capable of producing enough green electricity to supply the equivalent of more than one million Danish households.

HSM Offshore Energy together with it’s engineering subcontractor Iv-Offshore & Energy has already successfully delivered several offshore substations for Energinet in the Danish North Sea. Based on our experience and technical know-how we created a highly efficient design for RWE’s Thor substation and jacket. This reduces the use of structural steel and the energy needed during manufacturing – with steel sourcing and fabrication in Europe.
