Buchan Offshore Wind Advances | Glasgow News

Buchan Offshore Wind is accelerating its giant floating wind farm off Aberdeenshire, now appointing Kent as Owner’s Engineer to lead the Front End Engineering Design phase. Targeting nearly one gigawatt of power—enough for a million homes—this landmark project will feature Scotland’s first concrete floating turbine foundations from BW Ideol, boosting the local supply chain. Backed by BayWa r.e., BW Ideol, and Elicio, the joint venture aims for turbine spin-up by 2033 with up to 70 turbines. With Scottish government consent expected by end of 2026, Kent’s expertise alongside Vekta Group and New Power Partners signals major momentum for Scotland’s renewable energy future.
