Forewind, owned by innogy, SSE, Statoil and Statkraft, has development consent orders for 4.8GW of offshore wind development at Dogger Bank in the North Sea. The consents comprise four individual 1.2GW projects. Mr Baker’s role will include the management and administration of activity related to those consents until operators for the individual projects are appointed, as well as the decommissioning of the meteorological masts on the site.
He comes from within innogy and prior to joining Forewind he was development manager for Galloper Wind Farm, responsible for the delivery of environmental and consenting activities. Trevor joined Galloper from Triton Knoll Wind Farm where he managed the preparation of the consent order application and led the project through the examination, securing consent for up to 1200MW. Trevor Baker takes over from Tarald Gjerde who has returned to his parent company Statoil to head up its department for wind business development project execution.
