Harnessing the vast potential of floating offshore wind for the good of our planet

 

The Broadshore Offshore Wind Farm is being delivered by the BlueFloat Energy | Renantis Partnership with the aim of contributing to a world-leading floating offshore wind industry in the UK. The project will combine innovative technology with a plan to attract and grow a skilled Scottish workforce and stimulate a thriving local supply chain whilst helping to reach Scotland’s net zero targets and improving our energy security.

The Project

Using floating technology in water depths up to 100 metres, the Broadshore Offshore Wind Farm will be located 47 km north of Fraserburgh and have an installed capacity of up to 900 MW.

Empowering local communities

A key element of our Scottish floating offshore wind projects is the development of a community ownership model, governed independently, and directed by the communities in which the projects will operate. The model could create a blueprint, shaping the future of community benefit from floating offshore wind projects throughout the whole of Scotland. This builds on Renantis’ successful track record of deploying similar schemes for a number of its onshore wind farms in Scotland.

We are currently working in partnership with Energy4All to explore the options.
