Metec Completes Anode Supply for East Anglia Jacket Foundations

Published by admin on

Jacket Foundations

In 2017, Metec UK secured its first major contract to supply 1,500 tonnes of sacrificial Stand-Off Anodes. These anodes were used to protect 42 jacket foundations for the East Anglia One Offshore Wind Farm.

Metec delivered nine different anode types with various insert arrangements for these Jacket Foundations. The project was completed a month ahead of schedule, with all deliveries finalised in November 2016.

When operational in 2020, East Anglia ONE will be one of the largest offshore wind farms worldwide, with an installed capacity of 714 MW. It will generate enough clean energy to power over 500,000 English households.

This £2.5 billion project is the largest renewable energy project by a Spanish company to date. Iberdrola has awarded Siemens an £800 million contract to supply 102 Siemens 7 MW wind turbines.
