PEEL Ports have signed agreement with Mainstream Renewable Power for offshore wind farm infrastructure projects at Hunterston.
Deals have been penned with the global wind and solar company to create the onshore infrastructure at the site to support its proposed offshore wind farm project.
The development is part of a long-term deal which the firm says will bring new employment and career opportunities for locals.
The contract is the latest step forward in Hunterston’s vision to build and develop a facility to service and diversify into green projects.
The deal comes just three months after Peel Ports signed a similar agreement with cabling company XLCC to open two new factories which could generate 900 jobs.
Andrew Martin, Peel Ports’ Group Land and Property Director, said: “We are excited to be working in partnership with Mainstream as part of the wider regeneration of Hunterston.
“Mainstream is a highly respected and credible developer of off-shore assets, and we welcome their long term commitment to Hunterston PARC.
“Their team buys into our vision for Hunterston and are committed to working with us to develop it further; including the potential for producing green hydrogen.
“Hunterston is one of Scotland’s largest brownfield sites and its largest deep water port. This agreement demonstrates the role it can play in meeting the challenge of a green economic recovery. https://www.largsandmillportnews.com/news/19782890.global-wind-solar-energy-firm-signs-hunterston-deal/?fbclid=IwAR3GFoVNA2c6JobRria34Qn_bQgeSlUxZ5imqD64cXu25Ixm5zirGL2uYfU
