The 317MW Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm, located about 23 km off the coast of North Norfolk, UK, will comprise 88 wind turbines and generate around 1.1TWh per annum.
This is enough clean energy to power almost 220000 homes. Compared to fossil fuels that is a reduction of 500000 tonnes of CO2 emissions every year.
The project is now in its construction phase and will be fully-operational by the end of 2011.
The wind farm is owned equally by Statoil and Statkraft through joint-venture company Scira Offshore Energy Limited. Statoil is operator for the project during the development phase and Scira will be the wind farm operator.
This project will draw on know-how from Statoil's longstanding offshore activities and Statkraft's expertise in relation to renewable energy.

  • The Norweigians are going to pile drive the British.

    That's a bit o' the right!

  • Nice to see the British letting the Norweigians control the energy supply.
