Annex E. Site Name Clarification

We recognise that there are varying processes being undertaken as part of the development of offshore wind energy in Scotland. These include:

  • Scottish Government’s draft updated SMP-OWE;
  • NESO’s transmission network planning Holistic Network Design and HND-FUE; and
  • CES leasing process.

Different naming codes and labels have been used for some projects in the aforementioned processes. The following tables have been compiled to summarise how projects have been labelled in those pieces of work. The table will help readers correctly identify projects when looking across the various documents.

Those marked as “N/A” for the HND name are not within the scope of either the HND or HND-FUE.
