WSP is to assess the environmental impact of two proposed offshore floating wind farms secured as part of the Scotwind leasing process in Scotland on behalf of ScottishPower Renewables and Shell.
The two projects are MarramWind and CampionWind and the commission was originally awarded to Wood Group’s Environment & Infrastructure (Wood E&I) business and will now be undertaken by WSP following the completion of its acquisition of Wood E&I. To support the development and delivery of the offshore wind projects, WSP will provide key front-end services, including Environmental Impact Assessment, stakeholder engagement and consultation support, advising on onshore works as well as supporting wider consents and licensing requirements.
