East Anglia Array
open-in-new
<p>The East Anglia Array is a proposed series of <a href="/facts/Offshore_wind_farm/wqVKcFSw">offshore wind farms</a> located around 30 miles off the east coast of <a href="/facts/East_Anglia/ywWSX5qw">East Anglia</a>, in the <a href="/facts/North_Sea/htGJNmsb">North Sea</a>, <a href="/facts/England/U9mE5bGL">England</a>. It has begun with the currently operational East Anglia ONE, that has been developed in partnership by <a href="/facts/ScottishPower/CF1g9daD">ScottishPower Renewables</a> and <a href="/facts/Vattenfall/0EnSTcP5">Vattenfall</a>. Up to six individual projects could be set up in the area with a maximum capacity of up to 7.2 GW. The first project, East Anglia ONE at 714 MW, received planning consent in June 2014 and contracts in April 2016. Offshore construction began in 2018 and the project was commissioned in July 2020. It is expected to cost £2.5 billion. </p>
