TenneT Topside Set Sail to Borssele Wind Energy Area where it will be installed on its jacket substructure with a crane vessel.

The superstructure (topside) consists of three interior levels (main deck, utility deck, control deck) and an outer deck (roof deck). The topside is 25 metres high, 58 metres long and 32 metres wide. The topside weighs 3,650 tonnes.

Right on schedule, the offshore power socket, Borssele Beta, will provide access to the wind energy generated by the offshore wind farms Borssele III, IV and V that are still under construction, and bring it onshore starting in 2020.
