The UK Government granted project approval in December 2006 for the Thanet Offshore Wind Farm, a 300 MW Round 2 project located about 11 km off the Kent coast. This planning consent authorised construction and operation of 100 Vestas V90 turbines and associated infrastructure, making Thanet one of the first Round 2 offshore wind projects to receive government approval.
