Wind turbine installation at the East Anglia Three offshore wind farm is due to begin around 18 March, with Cadeler deploying its jack-up vessels Wind Osprey and Wind Pace to install 95 Siemens Gamesa 14+ MW turbines. The installation campaign is expected to finish in 3Q or 4Q of this year.

Marine operations for the campaign will be delivered by Cadeler, while construction operations will be handled by turbine supplier Siemens Gamesa, according to a Notice to Mariners issued by the project team.

Both jack-ups will mobilise via the Port of Esbjerg in Denmark. First load-out for Wind Osprey is expected on 15 March, while first load-out for Wind Pace is scheduled for mid-April.

Offshore construction began in April 2025 with installation of the first of 95 monopile foundations at the site, located about 69,000 m off the Suffolk coast. Cadeler’s vessels are being deployed under a Vessel Reservation Agreement signed with ScottishPower Renewables in 2022.

The project is owned by ScottishPower Renewables—the UK arm of Iberdrola—and Masdar, with ScottishPower Renewables leading development, construction and operations on behalf of the partnership.
