The transports for an innovative wind power project finished safely and ahead of schedule. Silvasti had the pleasure to participate in a first-of-a-kind project in the Nordics, where the tower sections of the WTG’s are constructed using a hybrid method, combining concrete tower sections with steel tower sections. The concrete tower sections were manufactured locally by Lujabetoni Oy, minimizing the delivery distances and lowering the carbon footprint of the project phase. Silvasti delivered a complete transportation solution to the project, including road transports, offloading and onloading setup on site storage and JIT-deliveries from storage to hardstands. All in all, Silvasti’s team performed 1361 transports safely to their destination during the duration of the project. The transports were finished a week ahead of originally planned schedule. Thank you to our client Nordex Group for the fluent cooperation and opportunity to participate in a new way of building wind power, as well as to all the project participants Lujabetoni Oy, LOWIND and BMS HEAVY CRANES. #Silvasti #ForYourSpecialCargo #SilvastiTeam

Another project safely finished! Last week, Silvasti completed the transports of the largest ever wind power project in the Baltics. The component deliveries were executed three weeks faster than originally scheduled, thanks to efficient planning and seamless cooperation between all the project participants. For the 38 WTG’s being built, Silvasti team of professionals made a total of 494 individual transports safely from port to site. Big thanks to our client Nordex Group, as well as our partners Quickport Logistics OÜ and Fulmenn UAB on the project!
