"We are making substantial progress on the construction of the U.K. Renewable new-build loss projects. Three of the projects are on track to be construction complete in first half 2018, with two of the projects currently in start-up commissioning phases, and despite incremental delays at one project resulting from the steel beam issue identified in late September 2017, construction is expected to be complete by the end of the year. While these delays increased our estimated costs to complete the projects, we expect to be able to offset some of these costs through agreements with our customers for bonus opportunities and liquidated damage relief in 2018."
