The Belfast-based manufacturer will deliver 24 steel foundation jackets for the 714MW scheme, which is scheduled for completion in 2020. International fabricator Lamprell will also work on the contract, developing 60 jackets.

The deal will secure 200 jobs in Belfast. The project is due to begin in March 2017 and will last for around 18 months.

Keith Anderson, Chief Executive of ScottishPower Renewables, said: "East Anglia ONE will be the best value offshore windfarm ever constructed, at the same time as delivering industry-leading levels of UK content.

"The facilities in Belfast are excellent for supporting offshore wind construction, as we experienced on our West of Duddon Sands project. We hope that the successful delivery of this contract will lead to even more opportunities in the offshore wind industry for Belfast."

H&W Chief Executive, Robert J Cooper, said: "H&W are delighted to work with such a prestigious company as ScottishPower Renewables, on a project of nationally significant importance.  Harland and Wolff have always been renowned for their unsurpassed quality and our collaboration with Lamprell Energy enhances our offer in terms of capacity and cost effectiveness. We look forward to a successful relationship with ScottishPower Renewables and Lamprell Energy."
