Farr is set to receive 40 sets of towers, turbines and blades while 24 will be delivered for the second phase of the wind farm developments at Pauls Hill. The shipments are expected to be completed by the end of this year.<\/p>\n
They follow the successful transport of 22 sets of components through Invergordon for the first phase of the Pauls Hill wind farm last year.<\/p>\n
Mikael Petersen, project manager for Deugro, which is transporting the components from Brande in Denmark for manufacturers Siemens said, ‘Invergordon was an easy choice for us. It is the closest suitable port to the wind farm sites and has ideal unloading and storage facilities, and access to the road network. Port management was also very cooperative when we shipped the components for the first phase of the Rothes project last year.’<\/p>\n
Ken Gray, port manager of the Cromarty Firth Port Authority said, ‘These shipments are bringing valuable business to the port authority and confirm Invergordon’s suitability for handling and storing substantial quantities of large but delicate components, and their onward transportation.’<\/p>\n
