Eurus Energy UK has announced a landmark investment in the 100MW Pentland Floating Offshore Wind Farm off the coast of Caithness, becoming the latest key player in an ambitious consortium dedicated to advancing renewable energy. With this move, Eurus Energy joins Highland Wind—primarily owned by Flagship Funds managed by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP)—and Hexicon, which holds a minority stake. Spearheading the project’s development is Copenhagen Offshore Partners (COP), the operational arm of CIP. Though specifics about Eurus Energy’s investment volume and stake were not disclosed, the company’s involvement underscores its commitment to clean energy technologies and global decarbonization efforts, particularly significant for Scotland.The progress of the Pentland Floating Offshore Wind Farm has garnered approval from Scottish Ministers as of April 2024, allowing for refinements to offshore consents, which notably include a reduction in the number of turbines while retaining the 100MW capacity. Additionally, the Highland Council has granted planning permission in principle, paving the way for the development of requisite onshore infrastructure. Integral to the project’s foundational groundwork, Geoquip Marine, Ocean Infinity, and Fugro have conducted an extensive two-year survey. Stiesdal Offshore will supply the floating technology, implementing its innovative TetraSub platform concept.
