London, 5 October 2023, (Oilandgaspress) – Iberdrola and the world’s largest manufacturer of brake materials, TMD Friction Services, have signed a contract for the long-term supply of clean electricity (PPA) for 15 years. With this agreement, the utility will supply around 50 GWh per year of green electricity, which will cover more than 50% of TMD’s total demand in Germany from 2027. The electricity will come from the Windanker offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea, which is currently in the planning stage.
Windanker will consist of 21 offshore wind turbines of 15 MW each and is scheduled to be connected to the grid in 2026 with a total capacity of 300 MWIt is the third offshore wind farm of the company chaired by Ignacio Galán in the German Baltic Sea, followed by Wikinger and Baltic Eagle. Wikinger was connected to the grid in 2017, and Baltic Eagle is the second offshore wind project currently under construction off the island of Rügen.
Together, these three offshore wind farms form Iberdrola’s so-called Baltic Hub, which will have a total capacity of more than 1.1 GW by 2026. Investments totalling around €3.7 billion are planned for the Baltic Hub.
