Metadata: 2010 Forewind Ltd, Doggerbank Windfarm Scoping Offshore Zone Development Envelope (Round 2)
Abstract:
This file details the Offshore Zone Development Envelope for Project 1 of the Dogger Round 3 windfarm site and is the extent considered for potential development. National Grid will dictate where Forewind can connect to the onshore electricity grid for up to 12.8GW of offshore wind generation. Forewind will then need to connect cables from each of 12 projects within the Zone to these given onshore points. Offshore and onshore cabling is very expensive and hence to make a project financially viable Forewind will generally look to take the most direct and feasible (in terms of cable engineering) route from each project to a point on the shore near to the grid connection. Forewind has therefore highlighted the Zone Development Envelope as the area in which cabling could be required from the Dogger Bank Offshore Wind Farm Zone to the shore. Large restricted areas within which cabling is not allowed could make projects within the Zone financially unviable due to the large increased costs of cabling around such areas.

Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 2529 |
Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2010 Forewind Ltd, Doggerbank Windfarm Scoping Offshore Zone Development Envelope (Round 2) |
Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | DEV_Project1_Scoping_OffshoreZoneDevelopmentEnvelopeR2, Scoping Offshore Zone Development Envelope (Round 2) |
File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 1be351809c2a8f9d46aada2b0056220d |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | NETGAIN0044 |
Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-11-05 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2010-11-05 |
Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | inapplicable |
Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | asNeeded |
