Besides presentations by the Dogger Bank JV team, the visitors will be able to attend one-to-one meetings on the topics of marine installation (including cable installation), turbines and foundation fabrication, onshore work, ESI (offshore substation + cable supply), as well as operations.

The Dogger Bank zone consists of four 1.2GW offshore wind projects located between 125 and 195km off the east coast of Yorkshire, UK, generating a total capacity of up to 4.8GW.

The Forewind consortium was originally awarded consents for the Dogger Bank development in 2015, however, Statoil and SSE, the owners of three out of four projects, established the Dogger Bank JV in September last year.

They are currently developing the project to bid into a Contracts for Difference allocation round.

The new company is developing Dogger Bank Creyke Beck A, Dogger Bank Creyke Beck B and Dogger Bank Teesside A, which total 3.6GW, while the remaining project, Dogger Bank Teesside B, will be progressed by innogy.
