HVIDE SANDE WELCOMES THE OFFSHORE WIND INDUSTRY
Offshore wind activity is of great importance to the Port of Hvide Sande, and with the establishment of the O&M centre for Horns Rev 3 and Vesterhav Syd/Nord, the port will become a hub for current and future wind farms in the North Sea.
The Port of Hvide Sande is centrally located as the closest port to the future offshore wind farms in the North Sea including the 3 Thor farms II, III, IV and Vikinge Banke. Additionally, the port is strategically positioned in relation to the Energy Island (EnergiØen).
The short sailing time from Hvide Sande saves the wind farm owners a significant amount of money, as it allows technicians to spend more working hours on the turbines. Furthermore, the short sailing time also means a low fuel consumption. Finally, the short sailing time enhances safety, as the service boats can reach the port much faster in case of bad weather.
