The Port of Rotterdam Authority is planning to develop a 45-hectare site in the north-western corner of the Maasvlakte for offshore wind activities, offering opportunities for storage, transport, (pre-)assembly, and delivery of components for both wind turbines and foundations. The terminal will have direct nautical access to the sea and will be equipped with heavy-duty quays and high-quality logistics facilities. It is expected to be operational in mid-2029.
The Port Authority will equip the 45-hectare site with 835 metres of quay where the latest generation of offshore wind installation vessels can moor. This quay will be suitable for jack-up vessels and pre-assembly activities on the quay, among other things. A roll-on/roll-off facility is also planned so that the terminal can facilitate all modes of transport. In addition to focusing on the construction of offshore wind farms, the terminal will also be equipped for the decommissioning of offshore wind farms.
