Current Offshore Wind

Fixed-bottom and floating offshore wind pipeline

■ There is around 78GW of offshore wind capacity in the UK pipeline.

■ Around 60% of this pipeline is fixed bottom and 40% is floating.

■ We have 6.4GW in construction, due to come online by the mid2020s, and a further 7.6GW is now finalising procurement and preparing for construction.

■ Crown Estate Scotland awarded rights for 27.6GW of new capacity through the ScotWind leasing round. The Innovation and Targeted Oil and Gas Round (INTOG) could add a further 5.4GW of floating wind capacity.

■ A further 4GW are expected to come through the Celtic Sea floating wind leasing round.
