Impact Action


1. Other EA windfarms


In addition to rows in the table above, activities include:


Active role in OffshoreWind Accelerator (OWA) exploring: Turbine foundation designs for 30-60mwater depths Access systems Improving cable installationmethods Electrical and transmission systems, primarily HVDC Improving the layout of large windfarms to reduce wake effects O&Mand conditionmonitoring. [3.5.2] SPR is a foundingmember of The University of Strathclyde’s Low Carbon and Energy Technology Innovation Centre exploring: Areas of electrical networks, Onshore/offshore wind assetmaintenance Offshore foundations [3.5.3] SPR is helping to shape Offshore Renewables Institute (ORI), recently established by the Universities of Dundee, Aberdeen and Robert Gordon. [3.5.4]


Sharing of best practice or lessons learnt ANNEX 6


2. Other offshore windfarms owned by SPR/Vattenfall


3. Offshore windfarms owned by others


4.Wave and tidal projects owned by SPR/Vattenfall


5.Wave and tidal projects owned by others


6. The wider low carbon generation sector


These generic collaborative activities have the potential to impact future EA projects significantly. Carbon Trust has a target of reducing LCOE by 10% and other programmes will increase this.


As for Column 1.


As for Column 1, as collaboration is at the heart of much of the activity.


Selected activities will benefit the wave and tidal sectors.


As for Column 4.


Benefits beyond HVDC are likely to be limited.
