SSE Renewables, together with its joint venture partner Equinor, has reached financial close on Dogger Bank C, the third phase of what will be the offshore wind farm. The two companies are already constructing the first two phases of Dogger Bank Wind Farm, a ground-breaking project off the north east coast of England which, once all three phases are complete in March 2026. Total investment in Dogger Bank Wind Farm will be around ?9 billion (around ?3 billion for phase C including offshore transmission). SSE's share of investment forms part of its recent Net Zero Acceleration Plan, which included fully funded ?12.5 billion strategic capital investment plans to 2026 alongside ambitious 2031 targets, aligned with net zero and 1.5 degrees. Large scale projects like Dogger Bank C are made possible by the financial strength and shape of the SSE group with its integrated net zero infrastructure strategy. Dogger Bank C has a capacity of 1,200MW and will generate around 6,000GWh a year. In total, Dogger Bank will produce enough clean, renewable electricity to supply 5% of the UK's demand, equivalent to powering six million UK homes. SSE is leading on construction across all three phases and Equinor will operate the wind farm thereafter. SSE is currently leading the construction of more offshore wind than any other company in the world and aims to enable the delivery of over 25% of the UK's 40GW offshore wind target by 2030, whilst also exporting its capabilities overseas. SSE's recent Net Zero Acceleration Programme is targeting an increase of 4GW of renewables installed capacity (net) over the 5 years to 2026, doubling installed renewables capacity to 8GW (net). This provides a platform for ambitious new 2031 targets including a fivefold increase in renewables output to 50TWh, maintaining a sustained renewables pipeline in excess of 15GW, and a trebling of SSE's owned renewables capacity to over 13GW (net) from c.4GW. Dogger Bank Wind Farm is the of SSE Renewables' projects currently in construction. SSE Renewables is currently also leading the construction of the Seagreen offshore wind farm (1,075MW, SSE Renewables share 49%), which will be Scotland's and the world's deepest fixed bottom offshore wind farm on completion. SSE's offshore wind development project Berwick Bank (up to 4.1GW, fully owned) would also be one of the when completed later this decade. Dogger Bank Wind Farm was awarded exclusive development rights in 2010 by The Crown Estate as part of its third seabed licensing round. The project secured planning consent in 2015.
