【SMM Flash News】Vestas Secures 1.4 GW Turbine Order for RWE’s Norfolk Vanguard West

Published: Feb 25, 2026 21:19
Danish manufacturer Vestas has received a firm order to supply 92 of its V236-15.0 MW turbines for RWE’s 1.4 GW Norfolk Vanguard West offshore wind farm in the UK. This milestone follows RWE’s success in the UK’s Contracts for Difference (CfD) Allocation Round 7 and its newly formed 50/50 joint venture with KKR to co-develop the multi-billion dollar project. Located 45 km off the Norfolk coast, the wind farm is expected to power 1.5 million British homes. With a final investment decision (FID) targeted for summer 2026, Vestas will also provide a five-year service agreement for the project, which is scheduled for commissioning in 2029

This week, ferrous metals were in the doldrums. The main logic during the week remained weakening cost support. On Tuesday, Iran proposed charging transit fees for the Strait of Hormuz, while Trump made conciliatory remarks, saying that “even if the Strait of Hormuz remained largely closed, he would still be willing to end military action against Iran.” Market expectations for tighter crude oil supply weakened, and declines in the energy sector dragged down the coal sector, weakening the cost-side logic. During the week, inventories of the five major steel products continued to decline, but apparent demand remained at a low level for the same period in previous years, providing limited fundamental-driven momentum to futures.
