UK Government approves Rampion 2 wind farm project off Sussex coast

The UK's controversial Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, Ed Miliband, has awarded a development consent order (DCO) for the Rampion 2 offshore wind farm project, which is being developed off the Sussex coast.

Development of the project, an extension to the existing Rampion wind farm nearby, is being led by global renewables company RWE, on behalf of joint venture partners, a Macquarie-led consortium and a subsidiary of Enbridge, a North American energy infrastructure company.
