We are leading the way in significantly reducing the cost of offshore wind. We are installing the largest turbines in the world for the first time at Burbo Bank Extension here in the UK and finding efficiencies at every stage of construction and operation. We are helping our UK industrial and commercial energy customers make their energy use more flexible, contributing to a more balanced energy system. We are also helping to tackle the UK’s waste challenge; we have nearly completed our first UK biotechnology plant, which will produce low carbon energy from waste. 6 DONG Energy in the UK DONG Energy in the UK 7 Green energy Leading the energy transformation Decarbonising power in the UK Offshore wind is the fastest-growing renewable energy technology and is therefore a substantial contributor to the reduction of CO2 emissions from the power sector. During 2016, in addition to operating eight offshore wind farms around the UK coast, DONG Energy was constructing four new offshore wind farms, as well as developing two further projects.

This enables its diesel engines to operate at variable speeds by using frequency converter technology. A detailed investigation of these benefits has been performed based on real-life measurements from three months of operations in the Race Bank wind farm off the east coast of England. The calculated fuel savings of Edda Passat achieved via its variable-speed engines are 21% lower compared to using a conventional alternating current (AC) grid with a fixed frequency. This paper will explain the technology, measurements, and results in detail. Keywords: variable-speed engine; Edda Passat; wind farm support vessel; integrated DC grid; SAVe Cube; fuel reduction; performance verification; operational profile; data logging 1. Introduction The maritime industry are focusing more and more on power optimization, driven by a necessity to reduce fuel consumption and lower emissions [1–3]. New innovations like including energy storage or direct current (DC) power systems have found their way on board many vessels [4,5].

Since earlier installations had low power output (less than 1 MW) and low capacity factors (less than 30%), the farms offshore were significantly less impactful than their onshore counterparts. In the UK, however, increased government funding and support has paved the way for greater presence of offshore wind farms in their electric grid infrastructure. Now that the UK has become the leader in offshore wind energy, many sites in English and Scottish waters are being examined for their potential large-scale installations (up to 1000 MW of installed power) while current installations are considerably greater than even a decade prior.
