WindWorks Jelsa was established in 2020 by NorSea, Suldal municipality, and Ryfylke IKS, with Norsk Stein as a partner, to explore the possibility of transforming a quarry at Jelsa into a large-scale, low-carbon-footprint site for building and assembling floating wind turbines.
Now, Implenia and NorSea will become equal minority shareholders in WindWorks Jelsa with approximately 41 per cent each.
The project will be developed in several phases from 2023 to 2032, leading to a production and assembly area of 800,000 square metres, including warehouses and workshops, purpose-designed launching systems as well as heavy load quays.
Under the signed agreement, Implenia committed to two small investment tranches in 2023 and 2024, with the first, “pre-production” phase taking place from 2023 to 2026.
