The chosen location is the northern part of Blexer Bogen, a bend in the River Weser. Following a meeting of the Senate in Bremerhaven, the Senator for Economic Affairs and Ports, was simultaneously asked to initiate the relevant approval proceedings.
Senator Martin Günthner said: “The Senate has issued an unmistakable signal: we intend to provide the offshore industry with the best possible conditions in Bremerhaven to enable this economic location to reap the maximum benefits from the booming alternative energy market. Climate protection creates qualified jobs.” The plans are based on the assumption that a terminal can be built at Blexer Bogen to handle up to 150 wind turbines per annum.
