據海上風能網8月31日報道，?rsted位于英國的1.3吉瓦Hornsea二號項目已全面投產，該項目現在已經成為世界上最大的運行中的風力發(fā)電場，從其兄弟項目1.2吉瓦Hornsea一號接管了這一殊榮。

這個1.3吉瓦的海上風電場位于約克郡海岸89公里處，與Hornsea一號一起，由165臺西門子歌美颯8兆瓦風力渦輪機組成，可以為140多萬英國家庭提供清潔能源。這兩個海上風力發(fā)電場均由?rsted公司開發(fā)，合計可為大約250萬戶家庭供電。

第一臺渦輪機于2021年5月底安裝，這個1320兆瓦風電場于2021年12月發(fā)電，此前其海上變電站（全球最大的海上交流變電站）和無功補償站（RCS）已于大約兩個月前安裝。

Hornsea二號發(fā)電廠產生的電力通過373公里的陣列電纜傳輸至海上變電站和RCS，并通過390公里的海上電纜和40公里的陸上出口電纜到達國家電網，這些電纜終止于Killingholme的陸上變電站。

在面積超過2000平方公里的北海Hornsea地區(qū)，?rsted還在開發(fā)Hornsea三號，這是今年7月獲得差價合約（CfD） 的五個海上風電項目之一。

2.8吉瓦Hornsea 三號擁有自己的稱號，因為開發(fā)商認為它是世界上最大的海上風電場。

World’s Largest Offshore Wind Farm Goes into Operation

?rsted has fully commissioned its 1.3 GW Hornsea Two project in the UK, which has now become the world’s largest wind farm in operation, taking over that title from its sibling project, the 1.2 GW Hornsea One.

The 1.3 GW offshore wind farm, located 89 kilometres off the Yorkshire Coast, alongside Hornsea One, comprises 165 Siemens Gamesa 8 MW wind turbines which can power over 1.4 million UK homes with clean energy. The two offshore wind farms, both developed by ?rsted, can together power around 2.5 million households.

The first turbine was installed at the end of May 2021 and the 1,320 MW wind farm generated its first power in December 2021, after its offshore substation – the world’s largest offshore AC substation – and reactive compensation station (RCS) were installed some two months earlier.

The power produced by Hornsea Two is being transferred to the offshore substation and RCS via 373 kilometres of array cables, and is reaching the national grid through 390 kilometres of offshore and 40 kilometres of onshore export cables which terminate at the onshore substation in Killingholme.

In the Hornsea zone, an area of the North Sea covering more than 2,000 square kilometres, ?rsted is also developing Hornsea Three, one of the five offshore wind projects that secured a Contract for Difference (CfD) this July.

The 2.8 GW Hornsea Three bears a title of its own as it is deemed by the developer to be the world’s single biggest offshore wind farm.
