Large Scale Offshore Wind

China wind energy development offshore 1600MW

This project encompasses multiple sites along the coast. SgurrEnergy carried out the following:

• Site selection & coastal development integration.
• Preliminary wind farm layouts, visual simulations & environmental impacts.
• Preliminary design of geotechnical surveys.
• Design, procure & commission offshore wind & sea-state monitoring stations.
• Detailed wind farm design & preliminary foundation assessment.

Q7, The World’s First Project Financed Offshore wind farm

SgurrEnergy acted as technical advisor for this 120MW project, located off the coast of the Netherlands, on behalf of a consortium of lenders. We performed the energy yield due diligence and carried out a technology assessment. We also carried out an analysis of long term wind speed trends to get the long term picture for the life of the wind farm and concluded the work with a quantification of the risks. We are ideally suited to carry out these responsibilities as we are 100% independent and provide sound impartial advice based on many years experience.

Inner Dowsing and Lynn offshore wind farms

These two adjacent wind farms are currently under construction, with completion expected in 2008. This 180 MW project is sited 5km off the Lincolnshire coast, east of Skegness. SgurrEnergy advised on availability and accessibility issues and conducted the due diligence of the energy yield.

Kentish Flats offshore wind farm

Kentish Flats offshore 30 turbine wind farm project became fully operational in September 2005. SgurrEnergy provided technology due diligence and energy yield due diligence to this 90MW project located on a large, flat and shallow plateau just outside the main Thames shipping lanes.
