In March 2025, the first of twelve shipments for the Thor project was completed at the port of Rostock. In the meantime 15 of a total of 36 monopiles that EEW SPC is producing for the project were collected. The remaining shipments are expected to take place by July 2025.
These monopiles measure an average of 82 meters in length and weigh 1,300 tonnes each.
A notable aspect of these monopiles is their installation method, which eliminates the need for transition pieces. This innovative ‘TP-less design’ allows the wind turbine tower to be mounted directly onto the monopile.
The Thor wind farm is located approximately 22 kilometers off the west coast of Jutland and will have a capacity of around 1.1 GW when it becomes fully operational in 2027. Once completed, it will provide green electricity to over a million Danish households. RWE is constructing what will be Denmark's largest offshore wind farm.
