Huge Hornsea Three offshore wind project wins government renewable subsidy backing

Orsted has secured its government subsidy for Hornsea Three offshore wind farm, with a strike price of £37.35 achieved in the biggest ever renewables auction.

The 2.85 GW project will generate a further 1,200 jobs in long term operation and maintenance in Grimsby and the wider supply chain.

By 2030 the company now expects to have at least 800 people working out of the East Coast Hub on Royal Dock - around double the current numbers.
