AU - Atkins
AB - This Environmental Statement (ES) has been prepared by Atkins Limited (Atkins) on behalf of Kincardine Offshore Windfarm Limited (KOWL) to accompany an application to construct and operate the Kincardine Floating Offshore Windfarm. Once constructed and installed the operational windfarm is anticipated to have an ‘operational’ - generating lifespan of 25 years. The consents associated with this Environmental Statement are requested to span a 30 year period to cover pre and post installation activities, construction/installation, operation and maintenance of the Project.The aim is to develop a pilot-scale offshore windfarm utilising floating foundation technology, which will demonstrate the technological and commercial feasibility of floating offshore wind. KOWL is currently negotiating an Agreement for Lease (AfL) under The Crown Estate Floating Foundation Demonstrator round. The proposed site is located south-east of Aberdeen approximately 8nm (15km) from the Scottish coastline and provides suitable water depth for a floating offshore wind demonstrator development (approximately 60-80m) .Kincardine Offshore Windfarm Limited (KOWL) is a new company formed by Pilot Offshore Renewable Energy (PORL) and Atkins Ltd. PORL is an Aberdeen based joint venture between MacAskill Associates Limited and Renewable Energy Ventures (Offshore) Limited. Both are Scottish companies with extensive experience in the wind industry. KOWL has been established in order to develop, finance, construct, operate, maintain and decommission the Kincardine Offshore Windfarm. KOWL is applying for the consents required for the windfarm and for the associated transmission works.
