The turbine capacity is reached quite regularly, particularly during windy days.
UK Crown Estate have a map of current renewable generation (https://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/en-gb/what-we-do/asset-map/ https://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/en-gb/what-we-do/asset-map/) and right now the Hornsea 1 field is generating nearly 900MW (~90% capacity) on not a particularly windy day for the North Sea. The capacity factors you read are averaged over a year.
