Offshore electricity substation installed in ‘milestone’ for new wind farm

The first of two electricity substations has been installed at the site of a wind farm off the coast of Fife in a “significant milestone” for the project.

It means the Neart na Gaoithe (NnG) wind farm can be fully connected to the National Grid ahead of its 54 turbines being installed in 2023.

NnG covers an area of about 105 square kilometres and will supply enough low-carbon electricity for around 375,000 homes.
