Members of the public invited to have their say on potential fourth phase of Dogger Bank Wind Farm
Consultation opens on Tuesday 10 September and is open until Tuesday 22 October
Members of the public are invited to have their say in the coming weeks on a potential fourth phase of Dogger Bank Wind Farm, Dogger Bank D.
A public consultation into the Dogger Bank D wind farm proposals will begin on Tuesday 10 September, and run for six weeks ending on Tuesday 22 October 2024. The public consultation will feature local in-person events and an online Q&A session to gather feedback from the public.
Dogger Bank D is a potential new fourth phase of the Dogger Bank Wind Farm, the world’s largest offshore wind farm, which is currently under construction. Dogger Bank D would be located in the North Sea, around 210km off the Yorkshire coast and be capable of generating up to 2GW of renewable power. The consultation outlines introductory offshore and onshore proposals for the wind farm.
The consultation offers the community a chance to learn more about the project, ask questions and provide feedback. The project team encourages all feedback during this consultation phase, which will be accepted until midnight on Tuesday 22 October 2024. This input is important in helping to refine the plans for the project. A further phase of consultation is scheduled for 2025.
"We are excited to welcome the public to our consultation events for Dogger Bank D and provide the opportunity for the community to learn more about our proposals. It’s vital for those who live or work locally to be informed about our plans and we look forward to sharing our ideas with the community and listening to what they have to say"
