Boskalis, working in consortium with TKF Subsea Solutions B.V., has signed a contract to supply and install 140,000 m of inter-array cables for the Gennaker offshore wind farm in the German Baltic Sea, developed by Skyborn Renewables. The scope covers the delivery of the complete inter-array cable system that will link 63 wind turbine generators across the project.

The cables will be manufactured in the Netherlands by TKF Subsea Solutions B.V. and installed by Boskalis using the specialized cable-laying vessel BOKA Ocean. Installation is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2027.

Gennaker has a planned capacity of 976.5 MW and is set to become the largest offshore wind farm in the German Baltic Sea. The project is intended to supply renewable electricity to around one million German households, with commissioning planned for 2028.

Boskalis is already active on the project. Its subsidiary Boskalis Heinrich Hirdes EOD Services is conducting an identification and clearance campaign for unexploded ordnance (UXOs) within the offshore wind farm area, supported by the dedicated UXO vessel Kamara.
