This event is now full, please email [email protected] to sign up to the waiting list and register your interest for this event. We are working closely with VolkerFitzpatrick to hold a ‘Meet the Buyer’ event on Friday 4 November 2022 at Norwich City Football Club and we would like to invite local businesses to explore potential opportunities. VolkerFitzpatrick has been appointed by Ørsted, the world’s most sustainable energy company, to deliver the installation of onshore cables for the Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm. With a capacity of 2,852 MW, Hornsea 3 will produce enough low-cost, clean, renewable electricity to power around 3.2 million UK homes, making a significant contribution to the UK Government’s ambition of having 50 GW offshore wind in operation by 2030 as part of the British Energy Security Strategy. The project (subject to Ørsted taking a Final Investment Decision on Hornsea 3) will see the installation of 240 km of onshore cables that will connect the offshore wind farm from the landfall at Weybourne in Norfolk to the Norwich Main National Grid Substation. Works are scheduled to commence in March 2023 with an anticipated completion in 2027. Both VolkerFitzpatrick and Ørsted are committed to engaging with the local community and supply chain to maximise the benefits and opportunities for individuals and the local economy. VolkerFitzpatrick have proactively identified a number of the relevant trades, services, commodities and skills required and are working closely with Norfolk Chambers to co-ordinate and facilitate as many opportunities as possible for local, and particularly, for small businesses and individuals to get involved and benefit from this exciting project. This event is a key chance for businesses that fit into the following sectors, to meet and discuss the opportunities to work on the Hornsea 3 project supporting VolkerfitzPatrick.
