Royal HaskoningDHV has been appointed by Vattenfall to provide environmental impact assessment services for the 1.8GW Norfolk Vanguard offshore wind farm off the Norfolk coast.
The EIA work will support Vattenfall’s Development Consent Order for the wind farm, which is the first of the two projects to be developed in the area.
Royal HaskoningDHV project manager and EIA co-ordinator Ruth Henderson said: “Through our technical knowledge of the area, and approach to EIA, we will be leading on a range of offshore and onshore disciplines that are required to successfully deliver a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project.”
Royal HaskoningDHV renewable energy sector director Alistair Davison said: “This is an important project for the UK industry, reinvigorating the sector and bringing much needed confidence to the UK market.
“We are committed to providing dedicated high quality, UK based consultancy support incorporating the collective experience gathered from more than 15 years in the industry.”
