THE FUTURE
KICKSTARTING
A NEW INDUSTRY
Whilst the majority of Green Volt’s renewable electricity will flow to the UK grid, the windfarm will also reduce offshore emissions from the North Sea’s oil and gas industry by facilitating the retirement of existing offshore power generators. In what is a truly pioneering shift in the decarbonisation of the UK energy system, Green Volt will mark the deployment of floating offshore wind at-scale to electrify and decarbonise the operations of participating platforms.

renewable power annually to the UK Grid
ENERGY TRANSITION
IN ACTION
Green Volt will save one million tonnes of CO₂ each year, making a significant impact on both the UK & Scotland’s net zero targets.
PIONEERING
A RENEWABLE FUTURE
Set to deploy up to 35 floating wind turbines, Green Volt is driving and defining standards across the floating wind sector.
As Europe’s first commercial-scale floating windfarm at 560 MW, the project is acting as a catalyst for a highly specialised floating wind supply chain.
GREEN ENERGY
TO THE GRID
Scheduled to be in operation for over 35 years, Green Volt will provide renewable power to the UK grid for decades to come.
