long wind turbine blades
2
internal docks filled
- Established a world-class centre for renewable energy, equivalent to the size of seven football fields, significantly boosting the UK's offshore wind power capabilities.
- Created wealth and employment opportunities in Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire, supporting local economic development.
- Successfully integrated modern facilities, including a new harbour and blade manufacturing factory, within the existing port infrastructure.
Siemens Wind Power is one of the largest suppliers of offshore renewable energy wind turbines. To meet the demand for future wind energy, Siemens invested in the construction of a new harbour at Green Port in Hull, UK, to enable the pre-assembly of turbines prior to installation in the North Sea. This has involved filling in two internal docks and reclaiming a significant amount of land from the Humber. They have also constructed a new facility used to build 75m long turbine blades and a second facility to service turbines around Europe.
Mace’s role was to provide project, commercial and environment, health and safety management for the construction of the blade factory, the service warehouse and give technical oversight to the harbour development undertaken by Associated British Ports.
