Earlier this month Cerulean Winds revealed plans to install a total of 200 wind turbines west of Shetland and in the central North Sea, which would power a hydrogen plant at Sullom Voe.
A key focus of the £10bn project â which would not connect to the national grid â would be to power oil platforms using wind energy, assisting the industry towards its goal of becoming net zero in the next couple of decades.
