Triton Knoll Electrical System

About this project

Triton Knoll Electrical System works are needed to transmit the electricity generated by the consented Triton Knoll Offshore Wind Farm to the National Grid. The Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change directed on 14 November 2013 (in accordance with section 35) that these works require development consent under the Planning Act 2008. The electrical system will include:
• onshore and offshore buried export cables and associated works;
• an intermediate electrical compound to provide voltage stability and compensate for electrical losses; and
• a substation located in the vicinity of the grid connection point.
