As part of the same 22 December 2014 contract, Iberdrola appointed Navantia’s Puerto Real shipyard to construct and install the Andalucía offshore substation platforms for the Wikinger wind farm, a steel structure about 60 m long and 22 m wide comprising two platforms of over 4,800 tonnes on a base anchored with six piles over 50 m high and weighing 2,400 tonnes. The substation work, valued at €70 million, was expected to run until spring 2016 and marked Navantia’s first major offshore wind project.
