Wind Energy – Inch Cape
Dutch-based TKF awarded a turnkey inter-array cable contract by Inch Cape Offshore for the Inch Cape Wind Farm, located off the East Coast of Scotland.
The contract has a total value of approximately €200 million. The wind farm will have an installed capacity of 1080 MW, equivalent to the electricity demand of more than half the homes in Scotland.
TKF will be responsible for the 66kV inter-array aluminum core cables and accessories, with a total length of 152 km. The extensive scope includes the engineering, manufacturing, testing, supply and installation of the inter-array cables and corresponding accessories.
The Inch Cape Wind Farm is located in the North Sea, 15 kilometers off the Angus coast in East Scotland. The wind farm will consist of 72 15 MW Wind Terminal Generators on a mix of jacket and monopile foundations. The project will make a significant contribution towards the UK’s offshore wind ambitions with offshore construction scheduled to start in 2025.
