Slaughter and May Advises DONG Energy on Westermost Rough Case

Slaughter and May advised DONG Energy on its proposed disposal of a 50% interest in the 210MW Westermost Rough offshore wind farm to a joint venture established between Marubeni Corporation and UK Green Investment Bank plc. 

The law firm also advised the energy company on the terms of certain related financing, construction management, operations and maintenance and power purchase arrangements.

The Westermost Rough offshore wind farm is currently in construction off the coast of Yorkshire. It is expected to be the first large-scale commercial wind farm to deploy Siemens’ 6 MW direct drive turbines.
