Dogger Bank announces ‘revolutionary’ HVDC offshore platform
Dogger Bank Wind Farm has unveiled a “revolutionary platform design” that will deliver a 70% reduction in the weight of its topsides.
The High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) offshore substation, which the developers have hailed as the “world’s first”, will become the largest of its kind at 1.2 gigawatts (GW) when its installed as part of the first phase of the project in 2023.
The development will be the first offshore wind project in the UK to use HVDC to transmit the electricity produced back to shore.
