Global Tech I Offshore Wind GmbH

About

Founded in 2015, Global Tech I Offshore Wind GmbH is a private headquartered in Hamburg, Germany with approximately 50-200 employees specializing in Wind.

Global Tech I Offshore Wind GmbH owns and operates the Global Tech I offshore wind park, a 400 megawatt facility located in the German North Sea approximately 160 kilometers northwest of Emden. The wind farm comprises 80 Adwen AD 5-116 wind turbines, each with 5 MW capacity and 116-meter rotor diameter. The facility began commercial operations in 2015. Operations are managed from the Hamburg headquarters, with an onshore control center coordinating turbine monitoring, grid management, and sea space surveillance 24/7. An offshore substation in the center of the wind field transforms the 33 kV output to 155 kV for transmission via two export cables to TenneT's BorWin gamma converter platform, where electricity is converted to direct current and transported via submarine cable to the mainland. The company employs approximately 80 staff, including about 30 working offshore in rotating 14-day shifts. Service and maintenance operations are conducted in partnership with Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy. The wind park has generated sufficient clean electricity to power approximately 450,000 households annually and has cumulatively produced over 1 terawatt-hour of electricity since 2015.
