The OranjeWind offshore wind farm at HKW Site VII is the first system integration project of this kind in the Netherlands, with the requirement for combining energy systems set by the Dutch government in the tender itself.
After being awarded the project site, the Germany-based developer announced that its first Dutch offshore wind farm would include green hydrogen production and floating solar, as well as other flexible demand solutions such as e-boilers and battery storage.
In a press release about its new joint venture with TotalEnergies, RWE said each partner would deliver their allocated part of system integration solutions, including electrolyzers, smart charging solutions for electric vehicles, e-boilers for heating, and battery storage.
