Statkraft partners with UK consortium to develop wind project

Statkraft SF agreed to partner with Energy Isles Ltd. to develop a 29-turbine wind farm in the north of Yell, U.K.

The Norwegian renewable developer will help Energy Isles move the project to the next stage, according to an Oct. 2 news release. The announcement follows the submission of a full planning application for the project earlier in 2019 to Scottish Ministers.

Energy Isles is a consortium made up of 50 mainly Shetland-based small to midsized businesses.

"By investing in renewable energy solutions, Shetland has the opportunity to continue exporting energy to the wider world, diversifying our economy and creating opportunities for future generations," Energy Isles Director Derek Jamieson said.

With Statkraft, the project is on track to be developed and delivered by 2026.
