Description
CS WIND Offshore (previously known as Bladt Industries) fabricated and installed the single offshore substation platform for the Gunfleet Sands offshore wind farm, which now forms part of the Gunfleet Sands OFTO transmission assets. Acting under a PCI-style contract, CS WIND Offshore delivered the steel topside structure and supporting substructure and handled transport and offshore installation within the wind farm area off Clacton-on-Sea. The platform houses the 33/132 kV transformation and switchgear that collect power from the array cables and export it via the 132 kV link to the onshore grid, providing the core offshore HVAC substation for the OFTO during the construction phase of the project.
