ScottishPower Renewables Phase 4 Consultation on the proposed East Anglia TWO offshore windfarm project closed on 26 March 2019.
This consultation phase was based on a draft Environmental Statement setting out the proposed infrastructure, its potential impacts and taking into account the environmental, social and economic effects and the mitigation measures proposed. We thank all those who took the time to attend our Public Information Days, review our Phase 4 material and provide feedback.
Next Steps
We are currently in the process of collating and analysing all responses to inform the development and refinement of our proposals. Following this our expected timetable is as follows:
- DCO Applications October 2019
- Examination in early 2020
- Decision in early 2021
- ‘Requirements’ discharged with Local Planning Authorities
- Construction commences early 2024
- Commercial operation mid-2027
We will be providing regular updates on the progress of the East Anglia TWO proposal and application. Please continue to visit this page for further information. We also encourage you to subscribe for regular updates as we move forward.
