ScottishPower Renewables has revealed the initial design for its new £8 million East Anglia THREE offshore windfarm base in Lowestoft’s PowerPark.
The new-build 5000m² facility will be developed on Trinity Road on the site previously occupied by RJ Pryce.
The site was acquired by ScottishPower Renewables in September 2024 and will become home to a new purpose-built operations and maintenance facility, subject to determination of the planning application submitted to East Suffolk Council.
The building design shows that it will comprise three storeys, with a similar look and feel to the company’s operations and maintenance base for its East Anglia (EA) ONE offshore windfarm.
Located nearby on land owned by Associated British Ports at Lowestoft port, it opened in 2019 and will continue to operate on its existing 30-year lease.
The Trinity Road development, which will be wholly-owned by ScottishPower Renewables, is expected to have capacity for around 100 people, creating additional employment opportunities for the town and local area.
