RWE Offshore Wind and grid-enhancing technologies and services provider Smart Wires have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to aid offshore wind connectivity.
Ofgem's investigation into the 9 August blackout has detailed why Hornsea One and Little Barford - the offshore wind farm and CCGT plant at the heart of the event - remained disconnected from the grid.
Power companies are to be fined £10.5 million and an already planned review into the electricity system operator (ESO) accelerated following Ofgem’s investigation into the nationwide blackout on 9 August 2019.
The reinstatement of the Capacity Market, coupled with better than expected performance, has caused RWE to upgrade its full-year guidance by nearly 30%.
