Metadata: 2005, EMU Ltd., Triton Knoll Offshore Wind Farm, Site Selection Assessment
Abstract:
In December 2003, npower renewables (NR) was granted a Round II wind farm exploration licence by the Crown Estate in an area known as Triton Knoll. In April 2004, NR commissioned Emu Ltd to undertake a GIS-based review of the constraints in relation to the Triton Knoll site. This review concluded that due to the number of potential constraints associated with the original Triton Knoll site, there may be potentially more suitable areas within the Greater Wash Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) area for development. Consequently, Emu Ltd was requested to review constraints within the entire SEA area and identify any potential areas for development. Following this wider review, 4 additional potential development areas were identified (Area 1 - Holderness, Area 2 - Modified Triton Knoll, Area 3 - Dudgeon Shoal and Area 4 - Sole Pit/Well Hole).
