Part 13: Offshore Wind Electricity Generation, Oil and Gas Chapter 1: Offshore Wind Electricity Generation Section 290: Meaning of "relevant offshore wind activity"
Subsection (1) sets out the definition of a "relevant offshore wind activity". The definition includes offshore wind plans (i.e., the identification of an area for offshore wind development, whether or not any particular offshore wind electricity infrastructure is in contemplation). This would include, for example, offshore wind leasing rounds, as undertaken by The Crown Estate.
	Subsection (2) defines "offshore wind electricity infrastructure", which includes offshore transmission infrastructure used for the conveyance of electricity generated from offshore wind (for example, a "bootstrap" cable). These are cables in the UK marine area that convey electricity from a mixture of sources, including offshore wind-generated electricity. This definition would not include other marine infrastructure, such as port developments.
	Subsection (3) outlines that offshore infrastructure used for the conveyance of electricity generated from sources other than offshore wind is covered by subsection (2)(b)(ii), provided that it will also be used for the conveyance of electricity generated from offshore wind.
