On 16 October 2024, Dogger Bank Offshore Windfarm formally applied to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero and Ofgem for a Section 5 individual transmission licence exemption covering the Dogger Bank A offshore transmission system until 19 December 2025. The request sought additional time beyond the existing commissioning period to complete installation and commissioning of the Dogger Bank A turbines and to undertake compliance testing of the transmission assets so they can be transferred to the eventual OFTO owner.
