Hornsea Project One Offshore Wind Farm

Challenges presented by the Round 3 ProjectsHornsea Project One will require a ReactiveCompensation Station approximately half way alongthe cable route. The Reactive Compensation Station enables the highvoltage AC system to work with cable lengths longerthan those previously used for offshore wind. Multi-million pound contract awarded to Babcock forthe construction of a world first offshore reactivecompensation station.Greater distance from shore Bringing forward new technology to managetransmissions losses associated with longer exportcable routes. Traditionally, offshore wind farms have used HighVoltage Alternating Current (HVAC) transmission. Challenge of bringing forward 66kV cables to reducelosses over greater distances. Will Direct Current (DC) be used in future?Walney offshore wind farm from airTypical offshore substation platform10

Challenges presented by the Round 3 ProjectsInstalling wind farms further offshore Vessels need to be capable of holding largercomponents (e.g. next generation turbines) Longer distance from ports/staging facilities tooffshore array and export cable route creates theneed for greater efficienciesOperating and maintaining windfarms further out toSea . New state of the art “SOV” vessel to operate from thenew East Coast hub, UK’s largest offshore wind O&Mbase located in Grimsby. Up to 28 consecutive days offshore. To service 6-8 turbines a day Innovative approach to O&M: extended technicianshifts with 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off Safety and operational efficiency benefits: ability oftechnicians to “walk to work” Accommodation capacity for up to 60 peopleOffshore accommodation platform during construction for Race Bank11

DONG Energy is currently exploring the potential to build one ofthe world’s largest offshore wind farms The Project will have a totalcapacity of up to 2,400 MWand could be capable ofgenerating enough electricityto meet the average dailyneeds of over 2 million UKhomes. Hornsea Project Three hassigned a grid connectionagreement with National Gridfor connection at an existing400 kV Substation, just southof Norwich. The Project has identified asuitable landfall zone in thevicinity of Weybourne and iscurrently consulting on anindicative export cablecorridor.We have based the above calculation on a load factor of 42% and a household consumption of 4.1MWh per year.
