On 18 October 2024, Caledonia Offshore Wind Farm Ltd finalised the "Caledonia South Statement of Need" (Application Document 16, Appendix 16-1), a system-need assessment supporting the consent application for the Caledonia South phase. The document sets out the role of up to 1.1 GW of capacity from Caledonia South in meeting Scotland’s and the wider UK’s decarbonisation, affordability, and security-of-supply objectives and argues for the project’s timely deployment in the late 2020s/early 2030s.
