E.On will develop Sussex offshore wind farm togethor with Searoc


The Sussex wind farm will be sited in Zone 6, the “ Hastings ” zone, located off the West Sussex coastline, out to sea off Brighton. The area is 270.2 km2, equivalent to 54,000 football pitches.

It is over 13km from the coast at its closest point and nearly 26km at its furthest. The shallowest parts of the zone at around 19m are of a similar depth to the London Array project awaiting construction in the Thames estuary. The deeper areas of up to 62m are more likely to be avoided, so not all of the zone will used to locate wind turbines.
