SSE and Equinor have selected GE Renewable Energy's 12 MW Haliade-X turbines for the US's Dogger Bank offshore wind projects in the North Sea. GE's Haliade-X turbines will also be used by Orsted for two projects in the UK. The turbines will be the largest in the world, according to Paul Cooley, director at SSE Renewables. The US plans to generate a third of its electricity needs from offshore wind by 2030 and to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
