Mermaid and Seastar offshore wind projects merge into Seamade

Developers of the Mermaid and Seastar wind farms in the Belgian North Sea merged the two projects into the 487.2MW Seamade. The merger was cleared by the European Commission, and Eneco Wind Belgium SA entered the share capital. Seamade NV aims for financial close by end of 2018, construction start in 2019, and commissioning by end of 2020.

“Through this merger, an international market trend is being followed by focussing not only on bigger turbines but creating synergies and scale effects.”offshore-energy.biz
