ScottishPower and Shell have joined forces to bid to develop the world’s first large-scale floating offshore windfarms in the north-east of Scotland, they announced last week. The group submitted multiple proposals for new floating offshore windfarms as part of Crown Estate Scotland’s ScotWind Leasing, which closed for submissions on July 16.
Shell expects to use its decades of experience working offshore coupled with ScottishPower’s presence in Scotland to provide the right blend of skills and experience to successfully deliver these projects, it said in a press release.
