The test phase of the Eneco Luchterduinen wind turbines has successfully been completed.
The test took 240 hours to conduct and showed that Luchterduinen is capable of supplying green power to the Dutch grid.
Operational in August 2015
A total of 43 wind turbines will be part of the offshore wind farm. Via a 25 kilometres long buried electrical cable through Noordwijk, the generated energy is routed to the power station in Sassenheim. In 2013 the design was created and electrical components were produced. Later that year, the production of the foundation piles took place. The actual construction by Van Oord started halfway into 2014. The offshore wind farm is expected to be operational in August 2015.
