The amount of copper in offshore wind farms increases with the distance to the coast. Copper usage in offshore wind turbines is on the order of 10.5 t per MW. [ 60 ] The Borkum 2 offshore wind farm uses 5,800 t for a 400 MW, 200 kilometer connection to the external grid, or approximately 14.5 t of copper per MW.
The wind farm provides electricity for Equinor’s Snorre (platform A and B) and Gullfaks (platforms A, B and C) oil and gas field; Snorre lies just North of the wind farm, and Gullfaks lies just South. Hywind Tampen is the world’s first renewable energy power source for offshore oil and gas, and when commissioned was the world's largest ...

A cable protection system (CPS) protects subsea power cables against various factors that could reduce the cable's lifetime, when entering an offshore structure.. When a subsea power cable is laid, there is an area where the cable can be subjected to increased dynamic forces the cable is not necessarily designed to withstand over its lifetime.
The wind farm received consent in 2014, [1] and received support under the Contracts for Difference (CfD) scheme at £57.50/MWh (2012 prices) in 2017. [2] The wind farm began exporting power in June 2021. [3] The final turbine was installed in September 2021. [4] Full power output was achieved in April 2022 [5] and was commissioned.
As the first offshore wind farms reach their end of life, a demolition industry develops to recycle them at a cost of DKK 2-4 million ($300,000-600,000 USD) roughly per MW, to be guaranteed by the owner. [122] The first offshore wind farm to be decommissioned was Yttre Stengrund in Sweden in November 2015, followed by Vindeby in 2017 and Blyth ...
