In August 2013, the Gwynt y Môr offshore wind farm first generated power, which was exported via the project’s offshore transmission system—comprising two offshore substations, four 132 kV export cable circuits (around 20 km offshore and 12 km onshore) and the onshore substation at St Asaph—into the 400 kV National Grid. This initial export marked first power on the transmission connection that is now owned and operated by Gwynt y Môr OFTO.
