The offshore substation stands tall against a colourful evening sky, bathed in warm light as the sun dips toward the horizon. These platforms are the heart of offshore wind farms, gathering and transmitting power generated from the turbines back to shore.
Photographed here with my iPhone in calm evening waters, the golden steel of the structure contrasts against the soft hues of the sky, with turbines in the distance reminding us of the scale and importance of renewable energy.
Offshore substations like this play a vital role in the wind industry, linking the turbines offshore to the energy grid on land. You can explore more of my work across the Wind Industry portfolio, as well as my Industrial and Places collections.
