Post-construction monitoring documentation reports that turbine installation at the Kentish Flats Extension was completed on 10 August 2015 and that all 15 turbines were generating power to the National Grid from 12 September 2015. This marks the Kentish Flats Extension export system entering full operational service, with two subsea export cables of approximately 18 km in total length bringing power ashore near Hampton Pier, Herne Bay, and the onshore cable route delivering electricity to the Red House Farm substation on Thornden Wood Road for transmission into the UK grid.
