Skyborn takes full control of German offshore wind farm

Skyborn Renewables Skyborn Renewables, a German offshore wind developer of BlackRock’s Global Infrastructure Partners, has become the sole owner of the Nordergründe offshore wind farm in Germany. Before the transaction, Skyborn owned a 30% stake in Nordergründe, with the remaining 70% being held by other investors. Commissioned in 2017 and located in the German North Sea, the Nordergründe offshore wind farm has a total installed capacity of 111 MW, generated by 18 turbines. The project produces enough renewable electricity to supply around 90,000 households. Nordergründe has been a long-standing part of Skyborn’s portfolio, and the company served as the construction manager for the project during its development. By becoming the sole owner, Skyborn gains full control over the asset’s optimisation and long-term management at a time when Nordergründe is entering a new phase that requires streamlined decision-making and targeted investments to maximise performance. Earlier this month, Skyborn signed a long-term integrated service contract with Wind Multiplikator for the Nordergründe offshore wind farm, supporting the project’s long-term operation and maintenance. “Taking full ownership of Nordergründe allows us to apply our integrated approach to optimise performance and create long-term value. Following the successful turnaround of Yunlin and the progress of Gennaker, Nordergründe marks our next step – demonstrating our ability not only to deliver projects, but to enhance and operate them sustainably over time,” said Patrick Lammers, CEO of Skyborn Renewables.
