MHI Vestas Donates EUR 3,000 to KNRM

Recently, the company which carries out maintenance work on the wind farms in the North Sea celebrated 3,000 consecutive days with no accidents.

Royal Netherlands Sea Rescue Institution (KNRM) benefited from this event as Dirk Dewettinck, Service Director of MHI Vestas Offshore Wind handed EUR 3,000 check to the organisation.

“Although no accidents occurred for a long time, it is good for our people to know that the volunteer crews, KNRM, is there. Just in case.” said Dewettinck.

KNRM is a voluntary organization in the Netherlands tasked with saving lives at sea. For that purpose, it maintains 39 lifeboat stations along the Dutch coast of the North Sea and Wadden Sea and on the IJsselmeer.

KNRM rescue stations in IJmuiden, Wijk aan Zee and Egmond can be used for accidents on offshore wind farms.
