Supply Chain Challenges & Opportunities
• The task ahead (33GW and £90Billion) seems extremely challenging
when taken all at once – especially if perception of lack of capital exists.
• But this can be achieved with several smaller steps.
• Capital will be available when construction & operation methods are
improved and the technology is proven.
• This will require investment by the supply chain – who must have
confidence to invest in R&D, systems, facilities etc.
• This will also require a track record of live projects to become ‘proven’.
• This is where developers/utilities and the supply chain must work
closer together than before.
• If so, then these initial steps can be the start of a very significant journey.
• In parallel, discussions with the funders of later projects must take place.

Offshore Wind Turbines • Big political push for turbine manufacture in UK
• Developers will contract directly with turbine manufacturers
• Significant component requirements near OEM location
• Limited proven technology – 3MW, 3.6MW, 5MW
• Next generation of turbines 5MW to 7MW
– Improves logistics
– Reduces foundation and connection requirements
• Technology must have proven reliability
– Clear technology roadmaps needed
– Test & Demo critical role to play
– More Test sites needed
• Possible range of turbine types per project

Electrical Equipment CABLING
• Large cable demand – array and export
• Capacity limited, new facilities/lines will take time to commission and prove
• Work required to deal with the installation of array cables
SUBSTATIONS
• Bespoke nature slows procurement and production process
• Large fabrication capacity required (as with jackets)
• DC and AC required – some connections greater than 100km
• DC conversion technology potentially required
SYSTEMS
• HVDC technology currently being developed
• Improved grid designs are crucial (reduce losses, improve reliability and redundancy, reduce capex etc)
OFTO
• Long term owner of offshore transmission assets will be the licensed Offshore Transmission Operator (OFTO)
