Seaway7 has been awarded a contract by ScottishPower Renewables for the transport and installation of the inter-array cables for the 960 MW East Anglia TWO offshore wind project.
The £4 billion offshore wind farm will be located 33 kilometers from the east coast of England in the Southern North Sea. Successful in the U.K. government’s Contracts for Difference Allocation Round in September, it is one of three consented offshore wind farm developments that, together with the operational East Anglia ONE, will form the East Anglia Hub.
Seaway7’s scope of work for East Anglia TWO includes the engineering, supply and installation of the 64 inter-array cables. Execution of the scope will be led from Seaway7’s Aberdeen office, with offshore activities scheduled to commence in 2027.
“This award builds upon our leading position in the U.K. and represents a significant contribution to the U.K.’s renewable target,” says Stuart Fitzgerald, CEO of Seaway7.
“With this project we also look forward to continuing our relationship with ScottishPower Renewables on our second East Anglia Hub project together, with East Anglia THREE currently in execution.”
Seaway7 is part of the Subsea7 Group.
