Seagreen Wind Energy

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, with reference to the Seagreen offshore wind farm’s Environmental Impact Assessment report Chapter 15, paragraph 15.95, how much of the £690 million of estimated contracts available to Scottish companies in the CAPEX phase of the project have been awarded; and with reference to table 15.10 of that report, how much of the estimated £79m for foundations has been awarded by Scottish and Southern Energy.

Answer: The Department does not hold that information. However, we work closely with the Scottish Government and the Department for International Trade and the industry to maximise the opportunities for UK suppliers from offshore wind projects.
