Wind. It means the world to us.™

Lowering the cost of energy offshore A new era for offshore wind power We stand on the threshold of a revolution in wind power, as the potential of the offshore wind power market is fully recognised. With the right equipment and strategy, huge returns on investment are achievable. The challenges associated with harvesting offshore wind are clear – the large scale of projects, the distance from shore, the depths of installation and safety. That’s why we at Vestas, having pioneered the offshore industry since its dawn, have developed a new generation of turbines 100 per cent dedicated to...

Predictable, competitive cashflow... together! Working together to maximise the value of your investment At Vestas, the design and planning of a new wind power project always begins the same way – by listening to you, the customer, and understanding your commercial needs and how to turn them into reality. Although the cost of the turbines typically represents approximately one third of the total capital expenditure for an offshore project, logistical decisions – such as weight, size, service access, etc. – impacts on other costs along the value chain. That’s why we consider all the factors...

Reliable, predictable, lifetime performance The V164-8.0 MW has been designed with two guiding principles in mind: firstly, this new generation of offshore turbines is intended to require as little maintenance as possible. Secondly, when servicing is required, it should be as safe, quick and cost efficient as possible. This means the parts we manufacture are sturdy and engineered to the highest degree of precision, resulting in fewer unscheduled visits and less downtime. For every offshore wind power plant, we tailor a maintenance programme to suit the site’s specific needs, from full-scope...
