The offshore wind industry is expanding rapidly and as a world leader in renewables, the Iberdrola Group is already playing a significant part in the development of this market.
ScottishPower Renewables is focused on the delivery of projects in the UK market as we operate our West of Duddon Sands and East Anglia ONE projects and continue to develop our East Anglia HUB.
As part of the Crown Estate Scotland’s ScotWind Leasing process, ScottishPower and Shell have joined forces to bid to develop the world’s first large-scale floating offshore windfarms in the north-east of Scotland.
In Europe, Iberdrola is at the forefront of the offshore wind market with 1,300 MW of operational capacity in Germany (Wikinger) and the UK (East Anglia ONE and West of Duddon Sands) and almost 1,000 MW coming soon in Germany (Baltic Eagle) and France (St. Brieuc). In addition to the US, it manages a large portfolio of projects in the UK, France and Germany, as well as in new growth platforms such as Ireland, Sweden and Poland.
In the rest of the world, the company is consolidating new growth platforms in several regions, with a significant pipeline of projects in Asia (Japan and Taiwan), as well as in other emerging markets such as Brazil.
