Question 1

How large are the wind turbines?  Will I be able to see them from shore?

RBD · Accepted Answer

The highest point of the offshore wind turbine (the blade tip as it rotates) could be up to 403m above the sea (measured to Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT)).

The wind turbines will be more than 33 miles (54km) offshore, therefore only the upper parts of the wind turbines be visible from the shore on a few days of the year. In addition, due to there being existing projects in between Outer Dowsing Offshore Wind and the shore, when viewed from most locations along the coast, the Outer Dowsing Offshore wind farm turbines will be hidden behind the other wind farms.
