Project Info
Wikipedia: GUNFLEET SANDS Offshore Wind Farm

Dong Energy: GUNFLEET SANDS

Wind Power To Bypass Nuclear Power In UK By 2012
The 4 gigawatt mark was realised with the final commissioning of three wind farms - a 38MW wind farm at Long Park, a 30MW facility at Dun Law and the first phase of Dong Energy's 173MW GUNFLEET SANDS offshore wind farm.

Wind turbines tested at GUNFLEET SANDS off Essex coast
The six megawatt (MW) turbines can generate almost twice as much electricity as the existing ones and have been built at GUNFLEET SANDS near Clacton.

Dong sells half of GUNFLEET SANDS
Dong Energy has sold 49.9 per cent of the 172MW GUNFLEET SANDS offshore wind farm to Japan's Marubeni Corporation for £200 million. Dong said back in March that it expected to sell up to half of GUNFLEET SANDS and Burbo Bank "soon".
