There's another offshore wind farm at Blyth (the Blyth Offshore Demonstrator Project), built in 2017: Source:,  — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheJoff (talk • contribs) 09:49, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Should this be added?
 * In a section called "Under construction", yes please; see List_of_offshore_wind_farms. When a reliable source says it has been commissioned, we can include it in the main section. Making a wind farm is a process of several steps, of which power is just one. TGCP (talk) 17:58, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Load factors
This paper lists recent load factors on page 5-7. Seems to be similar to capacity factor, but I'm not sure. . Source: Tools and Other Data: Draft Annual Load Factors 2014-15 TGCP (talk) 20:31, 18 November 2015 (UTC)

dogger A
Dogger Bank is now operational, and generating power for the nation grid, though will continue to be constructed until 2026. Should it be moved to the operational table?

 * I think if it is referred to as Dogger Bank A it could be moved to the operational table.
 * Is the assumption that an entry should be moved to the operational table as soon as one (or more) turbines are powered up and connected to the UK grid? Or should we wait until all 95 turbines are noted as being commissioned?
 * Alternatively, should an additional table be created titled "partially operational" or "being commissioned"? Zmsh99 (talk) 22:52, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Green Volt floating offshore wind project
Billed as "The first commercial-scale floating offshore windfarm in Europe" this should probably be on this page, but not sure where. It apparently has planning consent for both onshore and offshore works, not sure about grid connection... https://greenvoltoffshorewind.com/greenvoltoffshoreconsent/. There may be other INTOG projects missing too see https://www.crownestatescotland.com/news/intog-13-projects-selected-to-support-green-innovation-and-help-decarbonise-north-sea, but not familiar with status of these.
