Vestas has received a firm order for RWE\u2019s 1,380 MW Vanguard East offshore wind project in the United Kingdom. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Vanguard East follows Vanguard West, which was confirmed as a firm order last month. This new order further supports the UK\u2019s advance toward its 2030 clean power targets while building crucial momentum for the wider energy transition across Europe.<\/p>\n

The order includes 92 Vestas V236-15.0 MW wind turbines, with Vestas responsible for the supply, delivery, and commissioning of the turbines. Upon completion, Vestas will also service the assets under a five-year comprehensive service agreement followed by a long-term operational support agreement.<\/p>\n

Sven Uterm\u00f6hlen, CEO RWE Offshore Wind, says: \u201cRWE continues to make good progress towards realising both of these major offshore wind projects in the UK with the support of Vestas, our partners KKR and a strong supply chain. We are on track to make a final investment decision for both projects this summer, with preparations for the major offshore construction campaign following on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nils de Baar, President of Vestas Northern & Central Europe and Global Offshore, says: \u201cWe are delighted to report a firm order for Vanguard East, on the heel of Vanguard West last month. The Vanguard projects underscore how collaboration and long\u2011term industry commitment will deliver reliable, clean, and affordable electricity for consumers while strengthening the UK\u2019s long\u2011term energy resilience. And with more than 25 years of experience in the UK offshore wind market, Vestas is proud to support the country’s continued leadership in wind energy. Our thanks go to our partner RWE for their continued trust in our technology, and we are looking forward to delivering the project together.\u201d<\/p>\n

The project site is located off the coast of Norfolk in East Anglia. RWE is currently targeting a Final Investment Decision (FID) for Vanguard East in summer of 2026, with deliveries beginning in Q4 2028, and commissioning of the project expected in 2030.<\/p>\n
