New offshore wind partnership at Port of Brake
Following an award from a wind turbine manufacturer recognising excellence in the handling and storage of wind turbine components at the Port of Brake, Germany, deugro Germany has announced a new strategic agreement with J. Müller, the port’s local terminal operator.
The collaboration brings together deugro’s two decades of global project logistics expertise in the wind energy sector with the infrastructure and operational capabilities of the Port of Brake, an established hub for specialised cargo handling on Germany’s North Sea coast.
“This agreement reflects our commitment to delivering tailored logistics solutions for the renewable energy industry,” said Christian Schulz, vice president, Global Strategic Accounts at deugro.
“Brake’s strategic location and the operational excellence of our local port handling partner provide the ideal setup for the efficient and secure handling of wind turbine components destined for project sites across Germany and beyond.”
With heavy lift quays, state-of-the-art cranes and expansive laydown areas, the Port of Brake is well-equipped for managing complex breakbulk shipments such as rotor blades and other oversized renewable energy components.
The port’s 11.90-metre draft and ability to accommodate vessels up to 275 metres in length further enhance its role in the wind supply chain.
Simon Junker, head of Renewable Energy, Onshore Wind and Cable at deugro, added, “This partnership strengthens our role in the wind energy supply chain and supports Germany’s transition to sustainable energy.”
