Moving offshore wind power onto the grid and into peoples’ homes
With 4.1-gigawatt capacity, Berwick Bank Wind Farm is one of the largest offshore wind opportunities in development in the world, and a key part of meeting United Kingdom Government’s offshore wind ambitions.
We were brought on to provide engineering design for the cable routes and onshore converter station, enabling power generated offshore to connect to the National Grid distribution network. To be sensitive to local constraints, our work explored multiple routing options for the cables. It included developing conceptual layouts of the converter station designed to minimise the need to export surplus materials while maximizing sustainable drainage opportunities.
When complete, identifying and confirming the optimum grid connections will enable Berwick Bank to supply enough renewable energy to power Scotland’s households twice over.
