Odense Port in Denmark has entered into a reservation agreement with China-based Dajin Heavy Industry Co., Ltd (Dajin) for 100,000 m² of port area, providing Dajin with the capacity to store offshore wind components destined for European wind farms.
As it is reported, in the coming years, Dajin, will deliver a substantial number of monopiles (offshore wind foundations) and transition pieces to projects across Europe including Denmark, Germany, Scotland, and France.
One of Dajin’s largest European customers, the German energy company RWE, will receive over 140 monopiles, including 36 that will be delivered to Thor, Denmark’s large offshore wind farm with a capacity of 1 GW.
Odense Port says that the Dajin monopiles previously has been stored in the Dutch port of Eemshaven, and that Dajin will now expand its marshalling operations to collaborate with Odense Port for the storage of these massive offshore wind foundations.
