Home » UK Renewables Sector Bolstered as Two Offshore Projects Advance
World records for tidal and offshore wind power are likely to be broken in the U.K., because two major energy projects made big advances during February. A 2,400 MW North Sea wind farm secured government approval, while generating equipment suppliers were selected for a 320 MW tidal lagoon in Swansea Bay.
On February 17, the government approved the Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A and B windfarm development off the coast of Yorkshire. To include 400 turbines, the farm will be the world’s largest of its type, according to Tarald Gjerde, general manager of Forewind Ltd, the project developer.
