Arven plans to commission its offshore substation platform around 2034, before first power in the same year and ahead of full commercial operations in the mid-2030s. As a radial-connected 1.8 GW floating wind farm east of Shetland, the offshore substation must be commissioned and energised before turbines can export power onshore via the export cable circuits. Year precision reflects phase-level scheduling on the developer's website.
