Dogger Bank – Who s Who in the World s Largest Offshore Wind Project
Posted 28/04/2021 20:58
Dogger Bank is not simply an offshore windfarm project, it is THE offshore windfarm project. Dogger Bank is an offshore wind farm site in the UK North Sea that will, once fully built, be the world s largest and most innovative. Here Offshore Engineer breaks down the main elements and players in the project.
Located 130km off the Yorkshire Coast, the 3.6 GW offshore wind project will consist of three phases – each at 1.2GW, and will cover an area of 1675 km2, larger than Greater London.
The three phases were previously known as Creyke Beck A, Creyke Beck B and Teesside A.
•38,000 m2 swept area
•One Haliade-X 13 MW can save up to 52,000 metric tons of CO2, which is the equivalent of the emissions generated by 11,000 vehicles in one year.
•One GE Haliade-X 13 MW spin could power a UK household for more than two days
GE Renewable Energy will establish its marshaling harbor activities at Able Seaton Port in Hartlepool, serving as the base for turbine service equipment, installation, and commissioning activities for Dogger Bank A and B.
The port will see the delivery of component parts for each of GE’s Haliade-X 13MW wind, including the nacelle, three tower sections, and three 107m long blades, for pre-assembly on-site at Able Seaton prior to transport out to the North Sea for installation.
The AquaDuctus pipeline will transport green hydrogen from the German North Sea directly to the continent.
It is part of the AquaVentus initiative, which plans to install 10 GW of electrolysis capacity for green hydrogen production from offshore wind power between Heligoland and the Dogger Bank sandbank.
In the dovetailed sub-projects, demand, generation, and transport of hydrogen are to be synchronised in order to enable a swift market ramp-up, RWE said.
Once the construction of the generation plants is fully completed, AquaDuctus would transport up to one million tonnes of hydrogen annually from 2035 onwards.
The first step in the AquaDuctus project is to carry out a detailed feasibility study, RWE said.

Project partners GASCADE, Gasunie, RWE and Shell have signed a declaration of intent to further intensify their collaboration on the AquaDuctus project.
The AquaDuctus pipeline will transport green hydrogen from the North Sea directly to the continent. It is part of the AquaVentus initiative, which plans to install 10 GW of electrolysis capacity for green hydrogen production from offshore wind power between Heligoland, Germany, and the Dogger sand bank, 100 km off the east coast of England. In the dovetailed sub-projects, demand, generation, and transport of hydrogen are to be synchronised in order to enable a swift market ramp-up.
The pipeline is the vision for the first German offshore hydrogen pipeline. Once the construction of the generation plants is fully completed, AquaDuctus would transport up to 1 million tpy of green hydrogen from 2035 onwards, thus making a substantial contribution towards the decarbonisation of energy supply in Germany and Europe.

LAHORE: The work for the construction of a convertor station of Central Asia-South Asia power project commonly known as CASA-1000 was formally launched at Azakhel Bala, Nowshera.
The convertor station is one of the major parts of the 1,270km High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission line originating in Kyrgyzstan and ending in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa via Tajikistan and Afghanistan (Torkham border) to transport 1,300MW hydel power in direct current (DC) mode and add it to the national grid after converting it into alternate current (AC) at the convertor station.
