Innogy Nordsee 1-2-3 is a large wind farm complex off Germany's coast. It is built 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of the island of Juist, within an area of around 100 square kilometres (39 sq mi) and in water 26–34 metres (85–112 ft) deep. It includes three wind farms: Innogy Nordsee 1 with 54 turbines, Innogy Nordsee 2 with 48 turbines, and Innogy Nordsee 3 with 60 turbines. In total, 162 wind turbines with a capacity of 6.15 megawatts (MW) will be used.

The Innogy Nordsee 1 project was originally developed by ENOVA. In 2008, it was acquired by RWE Innogy.^[1] The construction permit for Innogy Nordsee 1 was issued on 4 April 2012.^[2] In December of 2017 Nordsee 1 began commercial operation, it is located 45 km from the shore.^[3]

Anniversary December 18th edit

In December 2018, it celebrated its first year of full commercial operation. The 332 MW wind farm has been producing green electricity to nearly 400,000 German consumers and has been energetically amortized, recovering the energy consumed for component production and installation in less than a year. ^[4]
