Umweltaspekte
By virtue of its technical characteristics the project is classified as an Annex II-project according to the EIA-Directive 85/337/EEC, as amended. National legislation requires a full EIA including public consultation for offshore wind farms. EIA was conducted including a detailed biodiversity assessment, covering marine and terrestrial habitat, mammals, birds, fish and benthic fauna. The approval was granted by the competent authority following extensive public consultation.
Auftragsvergabe
The promoters are not subject to EU procurement directives (Utilities Directive 2004/17) for the purchase of the project’s equipment as the concession to build an offshore wind farm was granted following a competitive tender (Round 2) launched by the UK government.
