PART 2CONDITIONS

Design parameters

1.—(1) The total number of wind turbine generators comprised in the authorised scheme must be no more than 90 having a total rotor swept area of no more than 4.45 square kilometres.

(2) Subject to sub-paragraph (3), each wind turbine generator forming part of the authorised scheme must have—

(a)a height of no more than 325 metres when measured from LAT to the tip of the vertical blade;

(b)a rotor diameter of no more than 295 metres;

(c)a distance of no less than 22 metres from MHWS to the lowest point of the rotating blade; or

(d)a distance of no less than 830 metres from the nearest wind turbine generator in all directions,

and the authorised scheme will comprise turbines of a uniform height and rotor diameter.

(3) The reference in sub-paragraph (2)(d) to the location of a wind turbine generator is a reference to the centre point of that wind turbine generator.

(4) Wind turbine generator foundation structures forming part of the authorised scheme must have either a monopile foundation, or multileg foundation.

(5) Wind turbine generator—

(a)multileg foundations employing pin piles forming part of the authorised scheme must have—

(i)no more than 4 legs per foundation;

(ii)no more than 4 pin piles per foundation; and

(iii)a pin pile diameter of no greater than 4.5 metres;

(b)multileg foundations with suction bucket must have—

(i)no more than 4 legs per wind turbine generator;

(ii)a suction bucket diameter of no more than 15 metres; and

(iii)a suction bucket penetration of no more than 25 metres; and

(c)monopile foundation forming part of the authorised scheme may have a diameter no greater than 13.5 metres.

(6) The total volume of scour protection for wind turbine generators (where necessary) must be no more than 1,215,000 cubic metres with a maximum footprint of 405,000 square metres.
