RWE shelves offshore Atlantic Array wind power project
The German energy group, RWE, has pulled out of the £4bn Atlantic Array wind power project off the north Devon coast, claiming technical challenges and market conditions make it unviable to continue. The company has faced strong opposition to its plans to build 240 offshore turbines in an area eight miles from Lundy Island and 10 miles offshore Devon to generate 1,200 megawatts of electricity. Residents in Devon and Lundy, as well as environmental and heritage groups, claimed the 722ft turbines could cause lasting damage.
