With the ability to power over 590,000 UK homes from a total capacity of 660 MW, Walney Extension is set to be the biggest offshore wind farm in the world when it is commissioned at the end of 2018.

Design work started in 2017 and looked at how existing fencing systems could be used to create a bespoke solution.
