Green Volt has awarded a front-end engineering and design (FEED) contract for an onshore substation for its floating offshore wind farm to Worley.
Green Volt’s onshore substation will be located North of Peterhead connecting a 560 MW floating windfarm 80km off the East Coast of Scotland. Having secured a Contract for Difference (CfD) from the government last year it will be the world’s largest commercial-scale floating offshore windfarm.
Matthew Green, Project Director for Green Volt, said: “Green Volt is proving floating wind technology can scale. There is huge opportunity to build a UK supply chain ready to act on the global opportunities ahead.”
