Visiting Robin Rigg Windfarm | Crown Estate Scotland

Robin Rigg visit

Earlier this year, our team were invited by RWE to visit the first windfarm to operate in Scottish waters: Robin Rigg Windfarm.

Now over a decade old, Robin Rigg generates around 460GWH of energy each year, and represents a major milestone in Scotland's Offshore Wind Energy journey.

Seeing the windfarm up close gave our team a taste for what the huge expansion of projects in our national waters, driven by the ScotWind leasing round, might be like.
