| Atlantic Array - proposed windfarm off Lundy | |
| Visitors to Lundy maybe aware of the proposal to build a large scale windfarm in the Bristol Channel. Developers, RWE renewables, are planning to erect up to 417 turbines sited 13km to the north of Lundy. The turbines are as high as the island itself and will obscure the view between the island and the Welsh Coast. Derek Green, General Manager of Lundy said, after seeing the presentation by RWE npower renewables, that the proposals are “shocking” and that he has no choice but to object. A campaign to encourage objections and raise awareness of the damaging effects that the windfarm would have on Lundy is being initiated. Derek Green is most concerned about the impact on wildlife and on the Marine Conservation Zone but also the visual impact, the effects of noise and vibration from the turbines and the detrimental experience for visitors to the island who are attracted by its peace and unspoilt environment. Lundy is an exemplar of conservation and has a reputation of innovative solutions towards its own energy generation but the position of the Atlantic Array shows no sensitivity towards an important marine environment and no consideration to the visual impact that a 350 square miles of turbines will have on those living on the southern Welsh and North Devon coasts as well as the Lundy islanders and its thousands of visitors. To object please send us an email to admin@lundyisland.co.uk and contact the developer RWE via :- atlanticarray@npower-renewables.com |
