Our successful bid was announced as we work towards our purchase of Vattenfall’s 50% share of the project. We will progress the East Anglia ONE Offshore Windfarm project initially as a 714 megawatt development after winning the auction with a price of £119/MWh, ensuring that East Anglia ONE will be the best value offshore windfarm ever developed in the UK. We have been able to bid at a price that is lower than anything previously seen in large scale offshore wind thanks to the engineering, procurement and operational efficiencies that have been introduced in to the project. The benefits of East Anglia ONE are already far reaching, with more than £15 million awarded to local companies during development – meaning 90% of all expenditure to date has been incurred in the UK. The project is anticipated to have an overall investment in the region of £2 billion. We aim to begin construction in 2017 with operation commencing in 2019. Looking to the future, we are also continuing to examine the potential for the further East Anglia offshore windfarm projects.
