RWE And Vattenfall Complete Multi-Gigawatt Offshore Wind Transaction In UK

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on offshoreWIND.biz.

This is the sub-heading.

RWE and Vattenfall have completed the sale of three offshore wind projects in the UK. With the transaction completed, RWE has expanded its offshore wind portfolio in the UK by 4.2 GW.

There is also this RWE infographic, which shows the three wind farms in relation to the East Anglian coast.

RWE are getting to be a big player in UK offshore wind, with these wind farm in operation or planned.

• Galloper – 353 MW – Operation
• Gwynt y Môr – 576 MW – Operation
• Rhyll Flats – 90 MW – Operation
• Triton Knoll – 857 MW – Operation
• Sofia – 1400 MW – Under Construction – Completion in 2026
• Norfolk Boreas – 1380 MW – Planned – Completion in 2027
• Norfolk Vanguard East – 1380 MW – Planned – Completion before 2030
• Norfolk Vanguard West – 1380 MW – Planned – Completion before 2030
• Dogger Bank South – 3000 MW – Planned
• Awel y Môr – 500 MW – Planned
• Five Estuaries – 353 MW – Planned
• North Falls – 504 MW – Planned

That is a total of 11,773 MW, of which 10,607 MW is on the German side of the UK.

With RWE likely to have some success in auctions this year, these figures, are likely to increase and some wind farms will start construction.
