  "account": "The world's largest offshore wind platform, a 2 gigawatt (GW) project, is set to be completed by 2028, according to Seatrium, a consortium of offshore and marine giants Seatrium and GE Vernova. The platform, known as Beta, is the first of four such systems to be supplied to Tennet, the Netherlands' national grid operator. Despite the ongoing Iran war, which has caused supply chain disruptions and energy price shocks, Seatrium's CEO Chris Ong remains optimistic about the project's timeline. The platform will weigh over 30,000 tonnes, have a base area of 8,200 square meters, and stand 10 storeys high. The consortium inked agreements with Tennet in March 2023 and secured another contract for a fourth platform with a higher transmission capacity of 2.2 GW in late 2025. Analysts estimate the fourth project's value to be around S$2 billion. The platforms are part of Tennet's broader plan to increase the Netherlands' offshore wind capacity to 23 GW by 2032.",
