The proposed point of connection at Ardleigh is unsuitable and contrary to the requirements set out in NPS-EN5, National Grid and ESO have confirmed that the East Anglian Connection Node is only required to connect the Five Estuaries and North Falls Windfarms and the Tarchon interconnector. The resulting network reinforcement required will involve cables across the Dedham Vale AONB and surrounding countryside. 50m pylons will be seen from the Dedham Vale and surround the oldest recorded town in England, Colchester. National Grid have stayed in their own consultation that significant damage will occur.
