ScottishPower and Shell have closed the first round of public consultations for a 3 GW MarramWind floating wind farm off the north-east coast of Aberdeenshire, Scotland, UK.
The project team expressed gratitude to Aberdeenshire residents for their participation in the consultation process, which included public drop-in events, a virtual exhibition, and live online Q&A sessions. They thanked everyone who contributed in person, in writing, or online.
