The floating wind turbine nine miles off Newtonhill has started producing power.
The Mearns Leader and the Press and Journal reported that the wind farm was originally expected to cost £250 million when announced in 2016 but will now cost closer to £500 million.
The remaining five turbines will be installed over the next two years.
The company’s managing director is quoted in the P&J as saying the lessons learned from the project will allow them to create the next generation of floating projects globally, in deeper waters and further from shore.
I would love to see a picture of the group – is there one do you know?
I have emailed you one.
