Citing anonymous market sources, the Spanish economic and business newspaper Expansion reported that the project, known as Baltic Eagle, will consist of 50 wind turbines.
The new offshore wind farm located off the coast of Pomerania in Germany, 30 kilometres northeast of Rügen island, is set to provide renewable energy to approximately 475,000 households.
