  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">This file details the Offshore Zone Development Envelope for Project 1 of the Dogger Round 3 windfarm site and is the extent considered for potential development. National Grid will dictate where Forewind can connect to the onshore electricity grid for up to 12.8GW of offshore wind generation. Forewind will then need to connect cables from each of 12 projects within the Zone to these given onshore points. Offshore and onshore cabling is very expensive and hence to make a project financially viable Forewind will generally look to take the most direct and feasible (in terms of cable engineering) route from each project to a point on the shore near to the grid connection. Forewind has therefore highlighted the Zone Development Envelope as the area in which cabling could be required from the Dogger Bank Offshore Wind Farm Zone to the shore. Large restricted areas within which cabling is not allowed could make projects within the Zone financially unviable due to the large increased costs of cabling around such areas.</dc:description>
