Wind Energy – Seagreen
UK-based Ventus Energy has been awarded a contract with SSE Renewables to provide maintenance works for Seagreen Wind Farm’s transmission assets.
Throughout the duration of the contract, its team will operate across primary and secondary equipment at the wind farm’s offshore and onshore substations, ensuring they continue to perform at a high standard and minimise transmission downtime.
The contract marks the third project Ventus has embarked on with SSE Renewables, having supported the operator’s Beatrice and Greater Gabbard wind farms since 2021.
In addition to substation asset maintenance, SSE Renewables has included a framework agreement with Ventus to provide senior authorised persons (SAPs) for 66kV operations.
Furthermore, Ventus Energy’s sister company RTS Wind will also support the contract delivery with mechanical-based maintenance, providing a true turnkey offering. This includes visual inspections of the offshore substation platform (OSP) and jacket structure, as well as statutory inspections of access ladders, fall arrest systems and lifting equipment.
