A joint venture (JV) created to develop large-scale offshore wind projects said it plans to use what at present would be the world’s largest wind turbines at two projects located between Spain and Portugal.
IberBlue Wind, a JV that includes Ireland’s Simply Blue Group along with Spanish companies Proes Consultores and FF New Energy Ventures, on April 11 announced that as many as 109 turbines—each designed to produce 18 MW of power—would be installed at the Juan Sebastián Elcano and Creoula floating offshore wind projects off the coasts of Pontevedra and Viana do Castelo.
