“Colleagues from the installation vessel currently are already working on the first turbines of the second half, so that we will have erected the park completely by the middle of July,” says Irina Lucke, technical project manager of the park.

Riffgat will be the first commercial German offshore park that will reach completion in the North Sea, Lucke stresses. So far only the 60MW Alpha Ventus test project is operational there.
