South Thanet MP welcomes London Array agreement

Local MP, Stephen Ladyman, has described the decision by EON and Dong to proceed with the London Array wind farm as ‘great news’. The two companies have agreed to purchase Shell’s share of the project and proceed on a 50-50 basis.

"This is great news for the planet and great news for Thanet" said Dr.Ladyman. "London Array could produce enough clean energy to supply a substantial part of London and the South East and a significant number of jobs in East Kent."

"Personally, I am still very angry about Shell’s decision and haven’t used a Shell station since they announced they were pulling out. I congratulate EON and Dong for understanding the importance of cutting CO2 emissions and appreciating the opportunity that the London Array offers. Well done them
