Sollatek selected to supply AVRs to Beatrice Wind Farm

PRODUCT: AVR3Ex1200
HISTORY: November 2018

By selecting Sollatek to provide stabilisers for their Beatrice Offshore Wind Farm project, Siemens have again signalled their confidence in our technology and capacity to engineer unique products to their demanding specifications.

When fully commissioned and at a cost of over £2.6 billion, Beatrice will be Scotland’s largest offshore wind farm. With a total capacity of 588MW; the site will produce enough power for more than 450,000 homes.

Located more than 13km from the mainland, the Beatrice wind turbines deliver power to the onshore sub-station where it’s regulated and ‘cleaned’ for export to the electricity grid network. While this electricity is being ‘cleaned’, the Sollatek LVAC AVR ensures a regulated supply is provided for site control and maintenance equipment for the onshore sub-station.

The variation of switching activities that would be performed at the site could cause the auxiliary supply to vary beyond the standard workable limits. With more than 35 years’ experience in voltage regulation, Sollatek designed and manufactured a 828kVA regulator with an input tolerance of -34% to +19% (151V – 274V) of the nominal, making this one of the largest ranges for any solid state, thyristor based regulators.

With its unique extended input range and ultrafast correction time, the Beatrice solution is the latest provided by Sollatek to strengthen the UK grid network.

The Beatrice project joints the list of our successfully deployed solutions for the windfarm industry and grid reinforcement across the country. These include Greater Gabbard, Dudgeon, Gwynt y Mor, Lincs, Galloper, London Array, Thanet, Melgarve, NEMO Link, Loch Buide, Fyrish and Tomatin.
