ESB, through the Stoura Offshore Wind Farm, has partnered with ORE Catapult and other developers in the Fit 4 Offshore Renewables Island Initiative. The programme kicked off in mid-April and the Stoura team is delighted that two businesses from Shetland will be taking part. The fully funded programme is aimed at helping suitable businesses in the Scottish Islands and coastal communities prepare for supply chain work for offshore wind.
Dr. Cian Desmond, Stoura Project Director at ESB, said: “We are delighted to support the Fit 4 Offshore Renewables Island Initiative through our Stoura project. With a proud tradition of marine and renewable engineering in Shetland, we are confident that this programme will allow local business to chart a course to supply goods and services to the offshore wind energy industry.”
