A planning application has been submitted for two wind turbines at Sullom Voe Terminal, each with a height of 149.9 meters and an output of 4.8 MW. The terminal is transitioning from its 100 MW gas-fired power station to renewables, with construction expected to take 12 to 18 months.

The turbines will help reduce reliance on non-renewable energy and are planned to operate for approximately 25 years. EnQuest, the terminal operator, previously considered adding up to seven turbines and is also pursuing e-fuel production and carbon capture.

Additionally, the Neshion Energy Park project proposes eight turbines to the east of SVT. Future developments include a substation hub by SSEN and a hydrogen/ammonia plant proposed by Statkraft.
