325MW Thornton Bank Offshore Wind Farm<br />

Products/services<br />

Our wind farm with a total installed capacity of 325MW will generate<br />

about 1.000.000.000 kWh/year, enough to provide 600.000 inhabitants<br />

with renewable energy. The project on its own represents already 10% of<br />

Belgiums EU renewable energy target by 2020. This will result in a reduction<br />

of CO 2<br />

emissions of 450.000 ton per year.<br />
