The 1 GW London Array submitted its application in June this year. The project is being developed by the consortium of CORE, E.On UK Renewables and Shell WindEnergy. This was followed in October by the 500 MW Greater Gabbard project, developed by Airtricity and Fluor. This project is unique as it is the first offshore wind farm to seek consent outside UK territorial waters.
Thanet Offshore Wind Farm has applied for consent to construct and operate 300 MW. If consents are awarded within 12 months, then construction could start in 2007-2008, with the projects being built out over a number of years after that.
