Photo by RWE
Name of the Project
Port of Setúbal floating offshore wind logistics hub.
Location
Port of Setúbal, south of Lisbon, in Portugal.
Project Owner/s
RWE is collaborating with the Port Authority of Setúbal to facilitate enhancements in its port infrastructure.
Project Description
Portugal has favourable wind speeds and is preparing for its first offshore wind auction.
The Portuguese government has agreed on floating offshore wind as the preferred technology for offshore wind, based on the country’s considerable water depths.
RWE and the Port Authority of Setúbal plan to explore the potential of the Port of Setúbal to become an important industrial hub for the marshalling, assembly and deployment of key components for large-scale floating offshore wind projects.
Early development of the national port infrastructure will position Portugal to harness the full potential of the floating offshore wind industry, and potentially explore opportunities for industrial synergies beyond the Portuguese market.
