California-based Clipper Windpower PLC has launched a Centre of Excellence for Offshore Wind in Blyth, U.K. Its mission is to develop the world’s largest offshore wind turbine at 7.5 MW.
The “Britannia Project” will build on the architecture and technology of Clipper’s Liberty 2.5 MW turbine.
The One NorthEast regional development agency in northeast England is providing a support package for engineering and a test laboratory, including its wind turbine blade testing facilities.
Funding provided by One NorthEast will support the development of Clipper’s wind turbine supply chain and related manufacturing facilities.
