Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind Autumn Consultation

Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind is a 1.5 GW wind farm that is being developed 54km (33 miles) off the Lincolnshire coast by TotalEnergies, Corio Generation and Gulf Energy Development. Underground cables would carry the power from a landfall site at Wolla Bank to a new onshore substation at Surfleet Marsh.

We see huge value in local knowledge and are committed to working with communities and stakeholders as we finalise our proposals.

AUTUMN CONSULTATION: FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20TH 2023 TO FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24TH 2023

In the summer of 2023, we welcomed over 430 consultees to our consultation events and received many valuable insights. Thank you to all those who gave your feedback. Combined with the feedback that we have received from our previous rounds of consultation, we have been able to further refine our project designs.

We are currently seeking feedback on Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind’s updated project plans in preparation for our DCO application which will be submitted in February 2024. There are a range of ways to learn and provide feedback on the project plans; we have prepared an online exhibition, will be hosting two online webinars as well as 5 in person public information events. Information will also be available at local spaces across Lincolnshire and documents are available for download on this web page. Please see the consultation leaflet in the resource section below for more details.
