After a more than a two-year expansion of its wind business in the US, Japan, Spain, and Poland, Ramboll, a global architecture, engineering, and consultancy company, has established a Wind Energy hub in the Netherlands .
Ramboll said it will utilise its existing office in Delft but is also contemplating the possibility of establishing new office locations in Utrecht or Arnhem. Furthermore, the new hub is set to serve as a liaison office for neighbouring markets. Expansion to Belgium is also possible in the near future.
“We have supported clients based in or doing business in the Netherlands for over 20 years, mainly from our hubs in Germany, the UK, and Denmark. We see a continuously increasing demand and client activities both in the Netherlands and Belgium, supported by the attractive political roadmaps for offshore wind and favourable site conditions, with both markets preparing for further auction rounds. By establishing the Netherlands as a Wind Energy hub in our global wind team, we ensure that our strong, dedicated teams have the capacity to support our local as well as global client base across our service portfolio,” Tim Fischer, Ramboll’s Global Senior Director for Wind, said.
In the first quarter of 2023, Ramboll plans to appoint a Head of Wind Energy for the Netherlands and will establish dedicated teams for Wind Advisory as well as Engineering.
“The wind energy and marine industry in the Netherlands is one of the European backbones. This naturally results in a robust knowledge base with an outstanding educational and research background and a broad range of sector experts. Ramboll, as a global company, offers an abundance of opportunities for graduates and experts alike to apply their insights to some of the most impactful projects around the globe. Ramboll’s new Wind Energy hub in the Netherlands will support projects worldwide, and with our global footprint, we are truly in a position to shape the energy landscape and create long-lasting impact,” Fischer added.
Founded in Denmark in 1945, Ramboll focuses on sustainable solutions across buildings, transport, architecture and landscape, water, environment and health, energy, and management consulting.
