Partnership to Produce Pipe for Massachusetts Wind Farm
Written by Sandy Williams
Bay State Wind, a 50-50 partnership between offshore wind company Orsted and transmission builder Eversource, will partner with international steel pipe producer EEW to manufacture components for offshore wind projects at a new facility to be built in Massachusetts.
EEW will collaborate with U.S.-based Gulf Island Fabrication, a fabricator of offshore and onshore steel structures used by the energy sector. EEW and Gulf Island will produce at the new facility monopile foundations and transition pieces, including secondary steel components, painting and pre-fabricated components for offshore wind turbine foundations.
