The offshore lighthouse project North Sea East of innogy. About 60 kilometers from the mainland innogy operates the offshore wind farm Nordsee Ost. Its 48 wind turbines generate enough climate-friendly electricity to supply about 320,000 households. This makes Nordsee Ost one of the largest commercial wind power projects off the German coast. The Nordsee Ost wind farm is operated and maintained from the island of Helgoland. Around 50 service technicians, engineers and nautical personnel are employed here, because unlike on land, wind turbines at sea cannot be serviced and maintained at all times of the day and night. Waves, wind and weather present our service technicians with complex tasks. Short distances, local partners and good downstream service logistics are therefore essential prerequisites for the economic operation of such wind power plants.

"Our long-time experience, also in the offshore sector, underlines our ambition to grow even further with a strong partner like innogy SE" says Marc Wollschläger // Head of Business Development at BWTS GmbH
