Roy Evans, from The Crown Estate, which has responsibilty for energy prjects in UK waters, outlined the planned development of offshore wind farms that will make the UK the biggest offshore wind market in the world.Three major wind farm sites are going to be to be located less than 60 nautical miles from Fife Energy Park, which is based on the former Kvaerner oil fabrication yard at Methil.
These developments are expected to give a boost to the local economy with local firms becoming world leaders in specializations such as sub-sea cabling.
