Wind projects of 300 MW in Celtic Sea given "green light"
The Crown Estate said that 300MW of new projects in the Celtic Sea have been given “the green light” to progress to the next stage of assessment.
The three projects have demonstrated technical competence, delivery capability and technological innovation.
“The three projects would each test new foundation and mooring technologies, using new designs, materials and construction approaches. They also could play an important role in supporting the development and momentum of the regional supply chain," the Crown Estate said in a statement.
One of the projects is the 100MW Whitecross project, located off the coast of Devon and Cornwall. The other two are: The Llŷr 1 and Llŷr 2 projects, comprising two separate 100MW sites, each testing different technologies, located south of Pembroke, on the Welsh coast.
