Scotland’s profile as a floating offshore wind hotspot was boosted again today with planning consent for the 10MW Dounreay Trì demonstrator project.

Dounreay Trì will see Swedish developer Hexicon aims site two turbines 6km offshore from the Dounreay nuclear power station in Caithness, in water depths of 60-110 metres.

The project was approved by the local Highland Council last month.
