According to the company, the Borkum Riffgrund I offshore wind farm began sending electricity to the grid several days ago.

PNE Wind started developing the offshore wind farm in 2001, and was later joined in its efforts by Dong Energy, which eventually bought the entire project.

Since then, PNE has remained active as a service provider for the Danish energy group.

“We are pleased that the first wind power turbine of the Borkum Riffgrund I project was successfully connected to the grid," said Martin Billhardt, PNE Wind Group's CEO.

"Our offshore team set the stage for this having developed the project up to the ready-to-construct phase. We look to continue our good cooperation with DONG Energy in the Gode Wind projects,” Billhardt said.

The Borkum offshore wind farm is located 54 kilometres off the mainland and 34 kilometres off the island of Borkum in the North Sea.

After completion, the Borkum Riffgrund I will comprise 78 wind power turbines with a nominal capacity of 312 MW.PNE Wind says that output will supply enough electricity to power 320,000 homes.
