A 12-month contract has been agreed between Siemens Gamesa and the ABP Port in Hull to store 37 wind turbine blades destined for the world's largest offshore windfarm, the Hornsea One Project. A six-acre area located at the Port of Hull's Eastern Access, on King George Dock, is now being leased for the storage of the 75 metre, 30 tonne blades in order to accommodate the expanding business. An operation is underway to transport the fibreglass blades nearly two miles from the current site on Alexandra Dock. "We're proud to be able to say that we have been an essential link in a major green project such as this, which will eventually see the blades powering one-million homes. It's also another example of our expertise in handling such large and specialist components.
