London Array – Statement on Public Inquiry Announcement

AUGUST 2007

London Array is very pleased with the Government’s decision to support the Planning Inspector’s recommendation to grant planning permission for its proposed substation at Cleve Hill in North Kent, following the public inquiry in March ‘07. This decision, in conjunction with the offshore consents granted last December, is a major milestone in the ongoing development of the 1000MW London Array offshore wind project and its onshore connection to the national grid.

London Array will continue to liaise with local residents and stakeholders as we got through the tendering phase of the project, we expect more news to follow.
