Plans for two Humber ports to be powered by onshore wind are moving a step closer as proposals go to public consultation.
Owner Associated British Ports is looking to install four turbines in Grimsby - home to the world’s largest offshore wind cluster - and a further two upriver at Immingham. Together they would have a generation capacity of up to 36MW.
As reported when the plan was first unveiled last month, they could have a blade tip height of up to 150m - significantly higher than the 94m Dock Tower, and three times the height of the biomass silos serving Drax.
