Seaway7 announces the award of a substantial contract by ScottishPower Renewables for the transport and installation of the inter-array cables of the East Anglia TWO offshore wind project.

ScottishPower Renewables £4 billion East Anglia TWO offshore windfarm will be located around 33 kilometers from the east coast of England in the Southern North Sea. Successful in the UK Government’s Contracts for Difference (CfD) Allocation Round 6 in September 2024, it will contribute up to 960 MW of clean, green energy—enough to power the equivalent of almost one million homes.

It is one of three consented offshore wind farm developments that, together with the operational East Anglia ONE, will form the East Anglia Hub, which will ultimately deliver 4,000 MW of renewable energy generation capacity. Seaway7’s scope of work for East Anglia TWO includes the engineering, supply and installation of the 64 inter-array cables. Execution of the scope will be led from Seaway7’s Aberdeen office in the UK, with offshore activities scheduled to commence in 2027.

Stuart Fitzgerald, CEO Seaway7, said: “This award builds upon our leading position in the UK and represents a significant contribution to the UK’s renewable target. With this project we also look forward to continuing our relationship with ScottishPower Renewables on our second East Anglia Hub project together, with East Anglia THREE currently in execution.”

Charlie Jordan, ScottishPower Renewables’ CEO added: “It’s great to confirm so much of our supply chain for East Anglia TWO on the back of achieving our CfD and we look forward to building on the positive working relationship we already have with Seaway7 on East Anglia THREE.
