Commenting on the recent announcement by Crown Estate Scotland that it has received over 70 applications from developers to build offshore wind farms in Scottish waters in the latest stage of the ScotWind leasing process, RenewableUK’s CEO Dan McGrail said:

“It’s great to see the sky-high volume of applications that ScotWind has attracted. This underlines our industry’s ability and ambition to scale-up to reach net zero. The next generation of Scottish offshore wind farms projects will bring billions in private investment, support thousands of jobs and create new supply chain opportunities. It will also ensure that we continue to be a world leader in floating wind and that we maximise our potential to export this innovative technology all over the world.

“ScotWind is a prime example of how we can build back better and it shows the need for regular leasing rounds to support green jobs throughout the UK and meet our net zero goal as fast as possible”.
