RWE Partners with Port of Setúbal to Establish Key Hub for Floating Offshore Wind in Portugal
(IN BRIEF) RWE has partnered with the Port Authority of Setúbal in Portugal through a Letter of Support, aiming to transform the port into a key logistics hub for floating offshore wind projects. This initiative aligns with Portugal’s renewable energy goals, particularly in the development of floating offshore wind, a technology well-suited to the country’s deep waters and strong wind resources. The collaboration will focus on upgrading the port’s infrastructure to support the assembly, marshalling, and deployment of key components for large-scale offshore wind farms. By enhancing the port’s capabilities, the partnership seeks to attract investment, foster industrial growth, and generate skilled employment within the floating wind sector. RWE, already involved in commercial-scale floating wind projects in the U.S. and Europe, sees this as an opportunity to further expand its offshore wind presence, both in Portugal and globally. This move strengthens RWE’s leadership in renewable energy while helping position Portugal as a major player in the floating offshore wind industry.
(PRESS RELEASE) LISBOA, 26-Sep-2024 — /EuropaWire/ — RWE has signed a Letter of Support with the Port Authority of Setúbal, marking a significant collaboration aimed at developing the port into a vital logistics hub for floating offshore wind projects. This partnership aligns with Portugal’s broader ambitions to expand its offshore wind energy capabilities and strengthen industrial growth in the renewable energy sector.
The agreement will allow RWE and the Port of Setúbal to explore opportunities for transforming the port, located just south of Lisbon, into a center for the marshalling, assembly, and deployment of key components required for floating offshore wind projects. This move is expected to position Portugal at the forefront of the floating wind energy industry and create potential for future industrial synergies beyond its national borders.
Álvaro de Miguel, RWE’s Country Lead for Offshore Wind in Portugal, expressed optimism about Portugal’s potential in the floating offshore wind sector: “Portugal is strategically placed to become a major player in the floating offshore wind market. By supporting the Port of Setúbal’s evolution into a logistics hub, we are laying the groundwork for scalable, commercial projects. This development will attract investment, boost economic growth, and create highly skilled jobs. RWE is excited about the possibilities this presents for the future of floating wind in Portugal.”
Carlos Correia, Chairman of the Board at the Port Authority of Setúbal, added: “Our vision is to transform the Port of Setúbal into an economic hub for sustainable projects, including offshore wind. With RWE’s expertise, we are confident in our ability to serve the growing needs of the floating wind industry by providing the infrastructure necessary for the marshalling, assembly, and deployment of components like floating substructures and mooring systems.”
Portugal’s advantageous wind conditions and deep waters make it an ideal location for floating offshore wind, and the country is preparing for its first offshore wind auction. The Portuguese government has selected floating wind technology as the preferred solution to tap into these resources. With foundational work already underway, the nation is poised to allocate development rights for commercial-scale floating wind projects.
RWE, a global leader in offshore wind, is committed to developing cost-competitive floating wind farms worldwide. The company has already secured a floating wind lease off the coast of California and is involved in two demonstration projects—TetraSpar in Norway and DemoSATH in Spain. RWE is also actively exploring opportunities for floating wind development in Europe, the U.S., and the Asia-Pacific region.
