Upon completion of the Rentel Offshore Windfarm, comprising of 42 Siemens SWT-7.0-154 turbines and 1 offshore substation, fully operational by end of 2018, DEWI-OCC has concluded the final stage of its Certification Services for Rentel, owned by the Otary Group. As end deliverable, DEWI-OCC granted in March 2019 to Otary the Project Certificate.

SeaMade NV is responsible for the simultaneous development of both the Mermaid and Seastar offshore wind farms, resulting in the single largest wind farm financed and built in Belgium. SeaMade is a partnership between Otary, ENGIE Electrabel and Eneco Wind Belgium.

As of today, Seamade NV will be responsible for the development of both the Mermaid and Seastar areas, which together stand for a total capacity of 487,2 MW, representing approximately a quarter of the currently allocated offshore wind capacity in Belgium. This merged project will allow to finance both projects through one project finance transaction.
