Three projects by Equinor and SSE were approved in the zone for a total generation of 3.6 gigawatts. Another 1.4 gigawatt project developed by Innogy was also approved in the same area…The next U.K. auction, set to take place in 2021, is expected to] draw as much as 20 billion pounds of investment in offshore wind…” click here for more
