Wind farm layout
The European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre (EOWDC), also known as the Aberdeen Bay Wind Farm[2] is an offshore wind test and demonstration facility located around 3 kilometres off the east coast of Aberdeenshire, in the North Sea, Scotland. It was developed by the European Offshore Wind Deployment Centre consortium.[3] The scheme is relatively small - it consists of 11 wind turbines with an installed capacity of 93.2 megawatts.[4] It is located between Blackdog and Bridge of Don near Aberdeen.[5] First power was generated in July 2018,[6] with full commissioning following in September 2018.[4]
