SSE Renewables, along with partners Marubeni Corporation (Marubeni) and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), has won rights to 858 square kilometers of seabed that will support the development of a new floating offshore wind farm. The seabed is in the E1 Zone in the Firth of Forth off the Angus Coast and is one of the largest lease areas to be offered by the Crown Estate of Scotland to any bidder in the ScotWind process.
The lease area has average water depths of 72 meters, making the site suitable for the deployment of floating offshore wind turbines to deliver up to 2.6 GW of new installed capacity. It is enough to power almost 4.3 million Scottish homes and offset around 5 million tonnes of harmful carbon emissions each year. When complete, the project will become one of the world’s largest floating offshore wind farms, positioning Scotland as a global leader in floating offshore wind technology.
