Lowestoft – in Suffolk, eastern England – is already home to operations for Galloper’s sister-project, the already-operating Greater Gabbard.
Port operator ABP said Lowestoft’s old fish market, next door to the Greater Gabbard base, will be converted to accommodate Galloper’s needs.
Galloper is a co-development by UK utility SSE and Germany’s RWE.
But the project – the next big UK offshore wind farm in the pipeline – has been placed under a cloud by SSE’s decision to put its activities in the sector under review over government policy concerns.
