Princess Amalia Wind Farm
- Princess Amalia Wind Farm
The Princess Amalia Wind Farm (Prinses Amaliawindpark in Dutch) is an offshore windfarm in the Netherlands. Prior to its official opening, it was known as the Q7 Wind Farm.
pecifications
The wind farm lies approximately 23 km west of the village of Egmond aan Zee, in the North Sea. (Note that between it and the coast lies another wind farm, OWEZ.) It consists of 60 wind turbines and has a total capacity of 120 MW.
Development
Building this wind farm was an initiative of Eneco and Econcern. Upon completion, Eneco CEO Jeroen de Haas complained that the required procedures took seven years. By contrast, actually building it cost only two years. Mott MacDonald was appointed as Lenders' Technical Advisor for the pre-financial close and construction phase of the project. Total development costs were 380 million euro.
The Princess Amalia Wind Farm was officially opened on June 4 2008. It is named after Dutch royal family member Princess Amalia.
