Delays at Scotland's gigascale offshore wind flagship Seagreen deliver $68m hit to SSE

UK utility SSE took a £57m ($67.8m) hit buying high-priced power as a result of delays to its 1.1GW Seagreen offshore wind project off Scotland, the company said.

The £3bn Seagreen – which SSE is building in the North Sea with co-owner TotalEnergies – is set to become Scotland’s largest when fully complete, expected in the summer of next year.
