Whilst I am supportive of offshore wind energy these ill conceived plans for the onshore infrastructure are brutal and will carve up the Heritage Coast along the cable route from Thorpeness to Friston and will destroy our peaceful rural countryside forever. Better solutions are available such as using brownfield sites, off shore hubs and ringmains. The piecemeal way these projects are being planned and the lack of joined-up policy means large swaths of the countryside up and down the country are unnecessarily being concreted over in the name of “clean energy”.
