HAMBURG, Germany — Skyborn Renewables is advancing its Gennaker offshore wind development in the German sector of the Baltic Sea.

The company has updated its master supply agreement (MSA) with Siemens Gamesa to cover delivery of 63 SG 14-236 DD wind turbines with a power boost of up to 15 MW and a rotor diameter of 236 m.

This replaces the 2022 MSA, which called for delivery of 103 SG 8.0-167 DD turbines with a power boost of up to 9 MW.

Otherwise, the project’s main soil investigations are nearing completion, the foundation design contract has been awarded, and responses to tenders for other main wind farm components and installation vessels are under review.

The 945-MW Gennaker development will be located about 15 km north of the Fischland-Darß-Zingst peninsula, within a designated priority zone for offshore wind energy in the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania coastal sea.

Offshore construction is due to start in 2027.
