RWE<\/a> has officially opened the new operations and maintenance base for Denmark\u2019s largest offshore wind farm, Thor. At Thorsminde Port, a wide range of participants from the local area \u2013 including neighbours, partners, and representatives from Holstebro Municipality, Thorsminde Port, and the local business community \u2013 will gather later today to celebrate this milestone together.<\/p>\n Thomas Michel, Chief Operating Officer RWE Offshore Wind:\u00a0‘The port of Thorsminde provides the quickest sea and air access to Thor offshore wind farm, making it the perfect location for our new service hub. Our first team members are already on site. Once Thor is fully operational in 2027, a dedicated team of 50 to 60 specialists will work around the clock for at least the next 30 years to operate and maintain Denmark\u2019s largest offshore wind farm. By keeping all 72 turbines spinning, our Thor team will generate clean electricity for one million Danish homes.’<\/p>\n RWE has officially opened the new operations and maintenance base for Denmark\u2019s largest offshore wind farm, Thor.<\/p>\n State-of-the-art building designed and constructed by local Danish companies<\/p>\n The operations and maintenance base was designed by the teams of ATRA arkitekter and Frandsen & S\u00f8ndergaard. Danish company \u00d8stermark Entrepren\u00f8rforretning was responsible for its construction. With its 2,300 square metres spread over three floors, the state-of-the-art building houses the necessary facilities to ensure the efficient operation of Thor offshore wind farm – including a control room, warehousing and office facilities.<\/p>\n In addition, the new building offers a lounge-style canteen and rooftop terrace. Materials and colours reflect the surrounding dunes and grass, adding warmth to the interior. From the conference room, you can enjoy unique views towards Nissum Fjord to the east, and over the North Sea towards Thor offshore wind farm to the west.<\/p>\n Work on Thor offshore wind farm is progressing according to plan<\/p>\n The offshore construction works for the 1.1-gigawatt wind farm are progressing well and according to schedule. Last year, the offshore substation and all foundations were successfully installed. Earlier this month, the first of a total of 72 wind turbines \u2013 each with a capacity of up to 15 megawatts \u2013 was put in place. Thor will be the first offshore wind farm in the world to use steel turbine towers manufactured with a reduced carbon footprint, and some of the turbines will feature recyclable rotor blades.<\/p>\n Recently, the first power was produced and fed into the Danish grid. When fully operational in 2027, Thor offshore wind farm will be capable of producing enough green electricity to supply the equivalent of more than one million Danish households. Thor offshore wind farm is a joint project between RWE (51%) and Norges Bank Investment Management (49%). RWE is in charge of construction and operations throughout the lifecycle of Thor.<\/p>\n A global leader in offshore wind<\/p>\n RWE already has 19 offshore wind farms in operation globally, including R\u00f8dsand 2, located south of the Danish island of Lolland. In addition to Thor in Denmark, the company is currently building three major offshore wind farms: the Sofia offshore wind farm (1.4 GW) in the UK, the Nordseecluster (1.6 GW, RWE share: 51%) off the German coast and OranjeWind (795 MW, RWE share: 50%) in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n For more information about RWE’s Thor offshore project, please visit:\u00a0thor.rwe.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Photo](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/222310_1a95e11a48e84ba0a57d.jpg\")
