Inch Cape Offshore Wind Farm

At almost 1.1 gigawatts, the project is one of Scotland’s largest offshore wind farm projects and will play a significant role in support of the Scottish and wider UK’s offshore wind targets.

Inch Cape Offshore Wind Farm, now under construction, will feature 72 turbines sited in the North Sea, 15 kilometres off the Angus coast. The power it generates will be transported 85 kilometres to a new substation at Cockenzie, in East Lothian from where it will enter the national transmission system. It will be operated out of a purpose-built facility at Montrose Port.

The project will make a significant contribution towards the UK’s offshore wind ambitions and will generate enough green energy to power the equivalent of more than half the homes in Scotland.*
