Construction of the wind farm is scheduled to start in late 2012, with commissioning due by the end of 2013.
In 2011 ILG was awarded an order from AMBAU GmbH for materials for the mast foundations. This new contract means that ILG will be supplying all of the steel, totaling more than 85,000 tons, for the masts for the wind farm which covers an area of 42 km² in the North Sea.
The steel will be used to manufacture 80 wind turbine masts commissioned by Siemens Wind Power. Production of the plate, which will be supplied with seams pre-welded and dressed, has already begun.
Just-in-time deliveries to the wind turbine builders in Denmark will commence in September.
