Princess Amalia wind farm (former Q7) already supplies 120 megawatt electricity a day for more than a month. Enough current for 125,000 households. This was the first offshore wind farm project for Van Oord as management contractor.
Van Oord handled the design, the construction and the laying of the foundations, as well as the electricity system.
The Belwind project off the Belgian coast is the next project in which Van Oord will be involved. Work is scheduled to start spring 2009.
