Array and Thanet wind farms will be more distant and relatively minor
elements in views.
10.4.5. The East Anglia Round 3 zone may lead to significant cumulative seascape
and visual effects on offshore receptors, principally due to the scale of the
Round 3 zone. GWF and the East Anglia Round 3zone lie within close
proximity to each other and, combined with the existing GGOWF
development, they could lead to an extensive area of wind farm development
in the North Sea, stretching from the southern tip of GWF to the northern tip
of the Round three zone.
10.4.6. Proposed aviation and navigation lighting will increase the density of
lighting visible to sea based receptors. Aviation and navigation lighting
exists at GGOWF and at other existing and consented wind farms to the
south-west, and proposed lighting at GGOWF will extend the coverage onto
currently unlit areas of sea.
