Voestalpine Anarbeitung GmbH, a subsidiary of the Austrian steelmaker voestalpine Group, has been awarded a contract for the supply of approximately 20,000 mt of pre-cut heavy-plate shapes for Siemens Wind Power for the London Array offshore wind tower project in the United Kingdom. The total sales volume of the contract signed amounts to a double-digit million euro figure. The delivery project will last for a period of one year.
The heavy-plate pre-cut shapes are being produced in the shape cutting facility of Voestalpine Anarbeitung and will be delivered to Siemens Wind Power for the installation of 106 wind towers, each with a capacity of 3.6 MW, as part of the London Array project. The installation of the wind towers will make it possible to achieve a total annual reduction of 560,000 tons in CO2 emissions.
