The first of the 95 GE Haliade-X 13 MW wind turbines has been installed at Dogger Bank B, the second phase of the 3.6 GW Dogger Bank Wind Farm in the UK.
This is according to the information in a Notice to Mariners issued by the project on 2 March, which states the wind turbine installation vessel (WTIV) Voltaire continues to work within the array site, with the commissioning service operation vessel (CSOV) IWS Skywalker also at Dogger Bank B providing construction support.
Jan De Nul’s WTIV Voltaire completed the installation of wind turbines on Dogger Bank A in the second half of February and immediately moved on to the same work on Dogger Bank B.

The installation of Dogger Bank B wind turbines will continue until approximately the second quarter of 2027.
All 277 foundations have been installed across the three 1.2 GW Dogger Bank Wind Farm sites, with inter-array cable work completed on the first two phases.
While Dogger Bank A and B each comprise 95 Haliade-X 13 MW turbines, the third phase , Dogger Bank C, will feature 87 GE Haliade-X 14 MW turbines.
The Dogger Bank Wind Farm project is owned by the consortium of SSE Renewables, Equinor, and Vårgrønn, which are also planning to build Dogger Bank D , the fourth phase of what is already set to become the world’s biggest wind farm.
