How will Sofia's power be transmitted?

The power produced by Sofia will be transmitted by offshore cables that arrive on land at a site between Redcar and Marske-by-the-Sea. Each offshore cable connects to an onshore buried cable that runs seven kilometres to a new converter station, currently approaching completion on a site adjacent to the Wilton Complex.

What is Sofia offshore wind farm?

Sofia Offshore Wind Farm is one of the four Dogger Bank projects that were awarded consent in 2015. Formerly known as Dogger Bank Teesside B, the entire project was taken over by innogy (now RWE) in August 2017 and subsequently renamed Sofia Offshore Wind Farm.

What's happening at Sofia offshore wind farm in 2025?

The year ahead will bring challenges, but 2025 will see Sofia Offshore Wind Farm increase activity on both our onshore and offshore converter assets. We’re also excited to soon welcome the turbine installation vessel, the Wind Peak, which will begin installing turbines in the spring.

Will Sofia be RWE's most state-of-the-art offshore wind farm?

Matthew Archer, Site Manager for Sofia Onshore Converter Station said: “Sofia will be RWE’s most state-of-the-art offshore wind farm yet and a major addition to our growing portfolio of renewable energy assets.” “Work on the station at Wilton continues at pace, and the arrival of these transformers is an important moment for the project.”
