LEIDSCHENDAM, the Netherlands — Fugro will perform offshore geotechnical site investigations for the Star of the South (SOTS) wind development off the Gippsland coast in southeast Australia.
The project, part-funded through the Victorian government’s Energy Innovation Fund, SOTS is in the feasibility phase but could potentially generate up to 2.2 GW of new capacity, supplying about 20% of Victoria's energy needs.
SOTS CEO Charles Rattray said, “Knowing what’s under the seabed in this location helps ensure everything we do, from turbine design and placement through to construction methods, is tailored specifically for this location in Bass Strait.”
