The transmission infrastructure connecting the Isle of Man’s first offshore wind farm to the UK has been granted Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) status by the UK government.
The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) will fund a £1 million market access programme designed to generate new opportunities for UK companies to export offshore wind products and services globally.
The planning phase of the MachairWind offshore wind farm has hit a new milestone as ScottishPower Renewables has submitted an environmental scoping report to the Scottish government.
ScottishPower Renewables, the green energy branch of utility ScottishPower, has acquired a new site at Lowestoft’s Power Park on the east coast of England.
