The UK Government has awarded Contracts for Difference (CfDs) to five offshore wind projects at a strike price of GBP 37.35/MWh each. One of the five offshore projects, which have a total generation capacity of 7 GW, is Ørsted’s Hornsea Three, for which the developer says is the world’s single biggest offshore wind farm.

The offshore wind farms awarded CfDs are: the 1,080 MW Inch Cape Phase 1 and Moray West (for 294 MW) in Scotland, and the 2,852 MW Hornsea Three , the 1,396 MW Norfolk Boreas (Phase 1) , and the 1,372 MW East Anglia Three in England.
