We are pleased to offer an exciting range of meetings bringing together the delegation
with international Offshore Wind (OSW) developers including winners of the recently
announced ScotWind sites and policy makers to provide an insight into supply chain
initiatives and innovation hubs.
BP: with an OSW portfolio of over 5.1GW* internationally under development including
projects in UK Round 4 & ScotWind with their JV partner EnBW (where fixed bottom
projects under development in the UK by this JV total 5.9GW). With a strong record in
renewables having developed 14.1GW across all green technologies, BP will provide an
overview of their net-zero strategy and aims to deliver low carbon electricity and energy
by 2030. OSW is BP’s fastest growing renewable business area with high level growth
opportunity globally through strategic partnerships.
Scottish Power (Iberdrola): with an OSW portfolio of over 20GW* internationally of
which 4.5GW* are ScotWind sites, we welcome back Scottish Power (Iberdrola) who will
provide an insight into the upcoming activities and share their thoughts on the deployment
of floating wind at scale. Of the recently awarded sites, 5GW of floating wind, together
with their JV partner Shell, will soon be under development for deployment over the next
decade. With only 80MW of floating wind operational in Scottish Waters to date, there is
challenge and opportunity ahead. The Norwegian delegation will also hear more on the
fixed-bottom portfolio including East Anglia THREE, a 1.4GW project competing in the
UK Government CfD subsidy round due to be announced in Summer-22.
SSE Renewables: with an OSW portfolio of over 10GW* of which 7GW is currently in
development, SSE together with their JV partners Marubeni and CIP, were awarded a
2.6GW floating wind site on the east coast. Currently constructing Scotland’s largest
OSW project - Seagreen (1075MW) we will hear from the Berwick Bank project; a 4.1GW
fixed-bottom site currently undertaking consenting and engineering design works.
Ocean Winds: Internationally experienced in the deployment of bottom-fixed and floating
projects, we will welcome Ocean Winds to provide an overview of the Moray West fixed-
bottom project which is also competing in the UK Government CfD subsidy round this
year. In addition, we are fortunate to have a senior member of the Caledonia project
team a winning 1GW fixed-bottom site building on their offshore hub in the Outer Moray
Firth where Ocean Winds has over 10-years’ experience. Ocean Winds is also the
Industry Champion for the DeepWind supply chain cluster and chair a number of supply
chain sub-working groups.
Red Rock Power: together with their JV Partner ESB, the Inch Cape project, a 1GW
fixed bottom site on the east coast of Scotland, will compete in the UK Government CfD
subsidy round this year. The team from Red Rock Power will present an overview of their
supply chain strategies and project timeline.
Falck Renewables: winning two floating sites with their JV partner Blue Float (in total
1.7GW) and a third site with Orsted and Blue Float (1GW) Falck (and Blue Float) are new
entrants to the UK OSW market. With interests also in Italy and the Celtic Sea (Wales),
Falck has an OSW portfolio* of over 3GW.
ORE Catapult:
ORE Catapult is the UK’s leading technology innovation and research
centre for offshore renewable energy. Utilising their unique facilities and R&D
engineering capabilities, including the blade testing centre in the North East of England,
the operational 7MW Levenmouth Turbine in Scotland and other digital capabilities they
bring together industry and academia to drive innovation in renewable energy. We
welcome Andy Macdonald, Director of OSW Development & Operations and his
colleagues to hear more on the Fit4Offshore Renewables programme, the Launch
Academy and the Offshore Wind Growth Partnership, a business transformation
programme that has been established as part of the UK Offshore Wind Sector Deal that
will promote closer collaboration across the supply chain.
Crown Estate Scotland (CES): CES is responsible for the management of assets in
Scotland including the seabed, coastline, rural estates and urban properties which at 31
March 2021 were valued at over £455M. Ownership of the estate remains with the
Monarch and management responsibility with Scottish Ministers. In supporting the
development of the Blue Economy, leasing for offshore wind including ScotWind and
INTOG are at the heart of their business. Gillian Morrison, Development Manager -
Supply Chain will join us to provide a background of the ScotWind Supply Chain
Development Statement (SCDS) and the approach that is being taken in Scotland.
