NORTHBROOK, Illinois – Ørsted has selected UL to deliver project certifications for the wind turbines and foundations at Borkum Riffgrund 3 and Gode Wind 3 in the German North Sea.
Project certification, part of the licensing process of offshore wind farms located in German waters, will help ensure the design, manufacturing, transport, installation, commissioning, and operation comply with safety standards.
Subject to Ørsted’s final investment decision, the 242-MW Gode Wind 3 wind farm is expected to go into full commercial operation in 2024. Commissioning of the 900-MW Borkum Riffgrund 3 wind farm is expected in 2025.
