Highland Wind Limited secured a grid connection agreement for the Pentland Floating Offshore Wind Farm, confirming a 132 kV, 100 MW connection at the Dounreay Substation after assessing connection options at Dounreay and selecting the 132 kV point as the preferred grid solution. This agreement fixes the onshore connection location close to the project’s landfall and underpins export of the wind farm’s output into the existing transmission network without major reinforcement works.
