Planning Consent granted for 1.5 GW Offshore Wind Farm in UK

UK Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has granted planning consent to BP, EnBW’s 1500 MW Mona wind farm off north-west England.

It is estimated the Mona Offshore Wind Farm could generate enough electricity to power the equivalent of more than 1 million British homes, providing a major boost for the national mission to become a clean energy superpower. 

Situated in the Irish Sea, the project will power growth across the country by building supply chain opportunities, with the developer launching a portal where local companies can offer their skills to deliver the project, boosting local communities in Wales and across the UK. 

The developer estimates it will support thousands of jobs, contributing to the up to 100,000 jobs supported by the offshore wind sector in Great Britain by 2030.
