The turbines under consideration will each have a capacity of up to 20 or more MW, hub heights up to 170 m, tip heights up to 350 m, and rotor diameters up to 300 m. Minimum blade clearance above sea level will be 23 m, with turbine spacing at least three rotor diameters.

All turbines will be connected to an offshore substation (OSS), from which electricity will be transmitted via offshore and onshore export cables to the 330 kV Darbėnai switchyard in Kretinga District. The “Area D” OWF will also connect to the same switchyard.
