Iberdrola
says
the
updated
statement
covers
fixed
foundations
for
the
project’s
turbines,
rather
than
the
floating-turbine
design
which
had
previously
passed
the
first
stage
of
planning
approval
in
2007,
before
Iberdrola’s
involvement.
Iberdrola
purchased
the
Wikinger
project
–
formerly
called
Offshore
Wind
Park
Ventotec
Ost
II
–
in
2010.
The
site
is
located
around
35km
from
the
northeastern
coast
of
Germany,
close
to
the
border
with
Denmark.
The
second
stage
of
the
planning
consent
process
should
see
a
final
design
for
the
site
submitted
in
early
2013.
Detailed
construction
plans
will
go
in
early…
