| Work Detail |
The Salamander Offshore Wind Farm, a joint venture between Ørsted, Simply Blue Group and Subsea7, has announced it has opened the second phase of its call for supplier innovations.
The project, a 100 MW floating offshore wind development and a 100 MW onshore energy battery storage facility, located approximately 35km off the coast of Peterhead, has committed to providing opportunities for domestic supply chain participation throughout construction and operation.
Through a dedicated supplier and innovation pathway, originally launched in 2021 and now being refreshed, organisations can have a direct route for project consideration. This second call opens on 3 December 2024 and can be accessed until 14 January 2025.
At this time, five areas of interest have been outlined by the Salamander team. These include:
Construction and operational health and safety
Wind turbine foundation integration
Novel anchor technology
Low carbon materials and processes
Construction vessel optimisation
A 100 MW innovation seabed lease was awarded to the Salamander project by Crown Estate Scotland under their INTOG leasing round. Construction is planned to commence in 2027 with operations beginning in 2029. |
