Aug 29, 2024 - Viking wind farm and subsea cable boosts UK clean energy from Shetland



We are thrilled to announce that the Shetland Islands have been connected to the GB electricity grid for the first time, thanks to the completion of the Viking Wind Farm by SSE Renewables and a 260km subsea transmission link by SSEN Transmission ! The Viking Wind Farm, with its 103 @Vestas turbines, is set to become the UK`s most productive onshore wind farm, generating enough clean energy to power nearly 500,000 homes annually. This marks a significant milestone in the UK`s mission to deliver clean power by 2030. These projects represent over £1 billion of investment as part of our £20.5 billion commitment to clean energy infrastructure by 2027.
