As wind turbines get bigger, the vessels that install them are having to change, too. VCG | Visual China Group | Getty ImagesA project to build a facility described as "the world's largest offshore wind farm" took a big step forward this month by producing its first power. The sea in the Dogger Bank Offshore Development Zone is up to 63 meters deep, meaning the Voltaire's ability to work in deeper waters is crucial. "Off the Scottish coast, for example, expensive floating windfarms are often the only way to tap into offshore wind," he said. Søren Lassen is head of offshore wind research at Wood Mackenzie, a research and consultancy group.

☆ The 'world's largest offshore wind farm' produces its first power

A project described as the "world's largest offshore wind farm" took a major step forward over the weekend after producing its first power. Located off the coast of northeast England in the North Sea, the Dogger Bank Wind Farm is being developed in three phases — A, B and C — and will have a total capacity of 3.6 gigawatts once fully up and running. "The project's first turbine at Dogger Bank A started turning and producing electricity at 8.37pm BST on Saturday 7 October," the Dogger Bank Wind Farm Project said in an announcement Monday. "Power from the first offshore wind turbine is now being transmitted to the UK's national grid via Dogger Bank's high-voltage direct current ... transmission system, marking the first-time use of HVDC technology on a UK wind farm," it added. Dogger Bank is using GE Vernova's huge Haliade-X turbines, which boast blades measuring 107 meters, or about 351 feet.
