The cable has been connected to shore at Bawdsey, Suffolk (UK). The electricity generated offshore will travel approximately 147 kilometers from the wind farm to the coast.
From there, the energy will travel another 37 kilometers by land to the HVDC converter station at Bramford, near Ipswich, using the infrastructure previously developed for East Anglia ONE.
East Anglia Three will have a capacity of 1.4 gigawatts (GW) and, once operational at the end of 2026, will become the Iberdrola Group's largest wind farm and one of the largest in the world, with the capacity to supply more than one million homes.
