Written by Richard High
The first foundation of the UK's Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm has now been installed, off the Norfolk coast by the heavy lift vessel
Svanen.
Over the next nine months,
Svanen will install the remaining 89 foundations ready for the mounting of two substations and 88 wind turbines.
The Sheringham Shoal Offshore Wind Farm is scheduled to start operations in 2011 and will provide enough electricity to power 220000 homes.
