Denmark's Ørsted Energy (formerly known as DONG Energy) and its partners have announced that the construction of the Walney Extension offshore wind farm in the Irish Sea has officially begun, with a total installed capacity of 659 MW, surpassing the London array in the United Kingdom, and is currently the world's largest offshore wind farm
.
Ørsted said in a statement that the plant would be inaugurated
at a Cumbria ceremony.
Matthew Wright, Managing Director of the UK, commented that the project was completed
on time and within budget.
The Walney Extension is now the world's largest offshore wind farm, spanning a 630 MW London array
.
The new wind farm is 50 percent owned by Ørsted and 25 percent each by pension funds PKA and PFA
.
The wind farm includes 40 MHI Vestas 8MW turbines and 47 7MW Siemens Gamesa turbines, generating enough electricity to power 600,000 UK homes
.
In addition, the commissioning of the wind farm will provide more than 250 jobs, mainly related to operation and maintenance services
.
The developer has created a £15 million Walney Extension Community Fund to support local projects and organisations
.
It will pay around £
600,000 a year over the expected 25-year life of the wind farm.
According to the plan, the offshore wind farm will be fully operational
in 2020.
