Once fully operational, the facility, which will become SeAH Wind’s first such resource outside South Korea, is expected to produce between 100 and 150 monopiles per year that will be transported directly from the factory to Teesworks’s new GBP 107 million heavy-lift South Bank Quay before heading to the North Sea for installation using specialised pile driving equipment.
The monopile factory will create 1,500 jobs in the supply chain and during construction, with an additional 750 roles once the factory is fully operational in 2026.
