A story of 150 wind turbines in the sea.
This is the Big Gemini Book. It portrays the people responsible for the wind park as well as the wind park itself: 150 wind turbines 85 kilometres off the Dutch coast, in two identical sub-parks – hence the name Gemini, which means twins.
In 2009, Gemini Wind Park got the green light when the Dutch government granted the permits for the project. Eight years later the project is completely finished and ready for the operational phase. The joint effort by shareholders
Northland Power Inc., Siemens Financial Services, Van Oord Marine Ingenuity and HVC has paid off.
Gemini consists of cables, foundations, two Offshore High Voltage Stations, a Land High Voltage Station and turbines: all of these elements are important and deserve a place in this book. The same also applies to the people who have been building the park. Several hundred people have been working on this project, on- and offshore. This book is a tribute to their skill and perseverance.
