ABL Group CEO Reuben Segal stated: “We are pleased to support Iberdrola in their construction of Germany’s all-important Windanker offshore wind farm. This follows on from ABL’s previous collaboration with Iberdrola in Germany on the Baltic Eagle project – reflecting our successful working relationship and the value we are able to bring to Germany’s growing offshore wind market.
“We are delighted to have the opportunity to continue applying our technical know-how and track record in offshore wind to drive the continued expansion of Germany’s renewable energy generation.”
