Germany, like the Netherlands, is in the process of expanding its electricity grid. This is the result of increasing demand for electricity combined with a growing supply of sustainably generated energy from (offshore) wind and solar power. These expansion projects sometimes require heavy transformers. And that, in turn, is a great challenge for Wagenborg Nedlift's transformer team!
Near Berlin, Wagenborg Nedlift's bridge team carried out a special operation. The Fahlenberg Bridge was moved 100 metres via a sophisticated jacking and barging operation.
Flexible deployment, strong and versatile: it's all true for Wagenborg Nedlift's knuckleboom cranes. Even more reason to expand the fleet with yet another all-rounder. So last week, a brand new Volvo FH with 92tm Palfinger PK92002SH rolled onto the yard in Groningen.
Twence in Hengelo is building a large-scale CO2 capture plant that will annually capture 100,000 tonnes of CO2 from flue gases. An innovative sustainability project that contributes significantly to reducing CO2 emissions in the region and making the chain more sustainable.
Last week, Gerard Bastiaansen, general manager of Wagenborg Nedlift, put the official signature to the previously agreed order for delivery of no less than five new MAN heavy haulage trucks. It concerns the new model of the MAN TGX 6x4. Nedlift has been using four trucks of the previous type to its full satisfaction since 2019. It is therefore logical that the MAN TGX 6x4 has again been selected to expand the fleet.
In Berlin, a large-scale renewal project of the Dresdner Bahn, one of Berlin's main rail links, is in progress. Wagenborg Nedlift's bridge team was there!
About 140 kilometers off the Norwegian coast, a unique floating wind farm is being constructed: the Hywind Tampen Floating Offshore Windfarm project. Eleven floating wind turbines, together generating 88 MW of power, will power the five offshore oil platforms at Snorre and Gullfaks.
Delamine Delfzijl's production facility recently underwent a maintenance overhaul that included a substantial extension of production capacity at the same time.
Last week, it was announced that Wagenborg again invests in the expansion of jacking technology. A unique jack-up system for ultra-heavy duty jacking projects was delivered to the Hengelo site.
