SeaMade Wind Farm
SeaMade stands for a combination of two offshore wind projects, formerly known as Mermaid (235 MW) and Seastar (252 MW). The SeaMade projects are located 40-50 km off the coast of Ostend (Belgium).
Eneco Wind Belgium has a 12.5% stake in the project. Other shareholders are ENGIE Electrabel (17.5%) and Otary RS NV, in which several parties are united (70%).
