Metadata: 2018, The Crown Estate, Round 4, Initial Proposals and Interim Reports for Round 4
Abstract:
Initial proposals and interim reports for Offshore Wind Leasing Round 4 presented to statutory organisations and bodies, and the market, in July 2018. We continued to engage with statutory organisations and planning authorities to assess potential locations for new seabed rights off the coast of England, Wales and Northern Ireland. We also continued to build upon the evidence base to identify, characterise and refine the most favourable areas of the seabed. By refining the number of regions and sharing our detailed data and analysis of constraints affecting the characterisation areas inside each of these regions, we aim to support and inform the markets’ selection of sites, helping to reduce consenting risk, and ensure the most viable projects come forward. For the final version of these documents released at the launch of Offshore Wind Leasing Round 4, please refer to this series: 2019, The Crown Estate, Round 4 Launch Documents.
