Trianel Wind Farm Borkum – municipal pioneering work on the high seas

As a joint project of Trianel and originally 33 municipal utilities and regional energy suppliers, at start of construction in 2011, Trianel Wind Farm Borkum has done pioneering work in the North Sea. With innovative technology, new turbine performance classes and challenging logistics, the Trianel consortium has broken new ground. The wind farm generates around 700 GWh on average per year – equivalent to the annual consumption of 200,000 households with a yearly electricity consumption of 3,500 kWh per household. The participating municipal utilities, investors and Trianel are thus jointly expanding renewable power generation in Germany.

The Trianel Wind Farm Borkum has its own substation, which is operated by Infrastruktur Windkraftwerk Borkum GmbH & Co. KG (IWB). That is where the wind power of the sister wind farms Trianel Wind Farm Borkum I and Trianel Wind Farm Borkum II flows together. Then the wind power is transformed and fed into the grid via a converter station of the transmission system operator TenneT. Via a 75 km long submarine cable, electricity reaches land.
