Triton Knoll Wind Farm is an 857 MW round 2 offshore wind farm nearing completion off the coast of Lincolnshire, in the North Sea, England. RWE Npower Renewables were awarded the lease to the development area in 2003. The offshore elements of the wind farm of up to 1200MW power gained planning consent in 2013; RWE reduced the scope of the wind farm to 900MW or under in 2014, to reduce cost per MW. Statkraft became joint owner of the development in early 2015. The onshore and offshore electrical connection assets were given planning permission in September 2016. The Project is now owned by RWE (59%), J-Power (25%) and Kansai Electric Power (16%). Construction of the first turbine was completed in January 2021, and with the installation of substations at each end of an undersea cable, first power was announced on 1 March 2021. The final turbine of the 90 in the development was assembled on 17 September 2021, with an expected final completion in spring 2022. History The project was initially developed by RWE Npower Renewables, who was awarded the 'Triton Knoll' development area by the Crown Estate in 2003. The original development was refined, extending north outside the original area, with the boundaries of the area defined by the avoidance of main shipping routes. In 2008 the developer accepted an offer from National Grid for an onshore grid connection at Bicker Fen, with landfall made at Mumby. Later the connection offer was withdrawn by National Grid due to a re-assessment of their planning. By 2011 the two parties had agreed on a connection at Bicker Fen. However, due to uncertainty over the final state of the Bicker Fen substation, in 2011 the developer split the planning applications into separate offshore wind farm and electrical system applications, to minimise delay. A planning application for the offshore elements was submitted in early 2012. The formal developer was Triton Knoll Offshore Wind Farm Ltd, a 100% subsidiary of RWE Npower Renewables -they applied for a wind farm of in size off the North Norfolk and Lincolnshire coast in the southern North Sea; the development area was cut in two by a NE/SW running pipeline channel of width. The proposed wind farm would be of up to 1200MW capacity, with turbines foundations in water with depth of . The planning application included the offshore structures, but excluded the undersea export cable, and
