Arenko will optimise Ørsted’s 600MWh Iceni battery from 2027 onwards. The storage asset will share transmission infrastructure with the 2.9GW Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm, creating a demanding combined trading, controls, and grid-management environment.
-
India will let delayed renewable projects pay to retain connectivity. Developers gain limited extensions for land, finance, and commissioning milestones before transmission rights can be withdrawn.
-
Siemens Energy has installed its first lightweight offshore substation design. The HV-TSU concept integrates high-voltage components into a more compact topside at Yuetuo Island.
-
East Anglia THREE has completed installation of 95 offshore foundations. Turbine erection is already beyond halfway as the 1.4GW project targets full operation by year-end.
