Red Rock Power has appointed Adam Ezzamel as project director of the 700MW Inch Cape offshore wind farm off the east coast of Scotland.
Ezzamel (pictured) takes up the role with ten years of experience in the sector on several projects including the Aberdeen Bay and Neart na Gaoithe wind farms.
Red Rock Power says the former Vattenfall and EDF Renewables man joins as the project “moves forward with development”. Inch Cape failed to secure a Contracts for Difference in this year’s third allocation round.
Chief executive Guy Madgwick said: “Inch Cape is a strong, viable proposition and we are committed to completing the wind farm.
“Adam’s appointment comes as we look to accelerate our plans and his experience will prove invaluable as we continue to progress with the project.”
Ezzamel added: “I’ve been very impressed with the Inch Cape development, both as an outside observer and as part of the delivery team.
“In Inch Cape lies significant opportunities and I look forward to working with the team, supply chain and stakeholders as we work towards bringing the wind farm to fruition.”
The consented project will feature up to 72 turbines off the Angus coast and has an existing grid connection at Cockenzie in East Lothian.
