    OSLO, Norway — Ørsted has appointed Havfram Wind to install turbines at its Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm, starting in autumn 2026.

    Havfram Wind will be utilizing one of its newly built NG20000X jackup wind turbine installation vessels with a 3.250-ton crane.

    Hornsea 3 will consist of up to 231 offshore wind turbines, located within a 696-sq-km area, about 120 km off the Norfolk coast and 160 km off the Yorkshire coast. With a capacity of 2,852 MW, Ørsted says Hornsea 3 will be capable of producing enough low-cost, clean, renewable electricity to power more than 3 million UK homes.
