This is according to the latest press release from Galloper Wind Farm Limited, a joint venture led by innogy SE, who also owns Nordsee One together with Northland Power.

The first Senvion 6.2M-126 turbine at the 332MW offshore wind farm in the German North Sea was installed in early March.

In April 2016, the installation of the turbine foundations was completed. The substation was installed last summer, and the inter-array cable laying was completed in September 2016.

The wind farm is expected to be commissioned by the end of 2017.

Once commissioned, the wind farm is expected to produce an annual output of more than 1,300 gigawatt-hours of electrical energy, enough to supply the equivalent of some 400,000 German households.
