Luxcara’s North Sea Wind Project to Scrap Chinese Turbine Order, Switch to Siemens Gamesa for 97 Turbines Amid Political Scrutiny

A German offshore wind project in the North Sea is planning to cancel its controversial order of Chinese turbines amid political scrutiny. The developer, Luxcara, is considering switching to Siemens Gamesa, which has recently secured a contract to supply 97 wind turbines for the site. This move aims to address efficiency concerns and reduce political tensions associated with the original Chinese turbine deal. The decision follows broader geopolitical pressures affecting renewable energy projects in Europe. Meanwhile, a major British windfarm operator is reportedly facing challenges after a key deal was canceled by former U.S. President Donald Trump, highlighting the complex international dynamics impacting the wind energy sector.
