ABL Group ASA’s renewable energy consultancy OWC has entered into an agreement to acquire 100 percent of the shares of Denmark-based offshore wind consultancy, Delta Wind Partners ApS (DWP) – a specialist solutions provider for wind turbine generators (WTG). 

The acquisition expands OWC’s technical offering in wind turbines and in consultancy at the installation and operational phases of an offshore wind project. It also provides an opportunity to further grow DWP’s unique approach to WTG optimisation both globally and in the floating offshore wind market.  

“With Delta Wind Partners we are broadening our expertise and experience so we can provide the most comprehensive technical offering to support the acceleration of the offshore wind industry. It gives us a presence in an important offshore wind market, at the heart of where the wind energy sector was born. DWP’s impressive expertise in WTG technology at the latter phases of an offshore wind project’s lifecycle perfectly complements OWC’s experience at the development phase, something that combined will add great value to our clients. As we also have a track-record of working together, this acquisition is not only a clear technical fit, but also a perfect cultural fit,” says William Cleverly, CEO of OWC.
