Details
In May 2026 the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change granted consent for the Dogger Bank South East and West Offshore Wind Farms Order 2026 (“the Order”) which includes, in Schedules 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 14a, six Deemed Marine Licences (DMLs) in accordance with Section 149 of the Planning Act 2008.
In July 2026 the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) received a request from the Project to vary the DMLs for Dogger Bank South East and West Offshore Windfarms (Schedules 10-14a) contained within the Order. The request was to make the following key changes:
- To update cross-referencing errors across all DMLs
- Reinstatement of reference to topic specific monitoring across all DMLs
- Removal of non-relevant conditions and wording
- Updates to typos
- Decreasing design parameters for offshore converter flatform foundations
- Updating numbering to completion of construction conditions
MMO has now completed its consideration of these requests and, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 72(3) (d) of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009, has varied the DMLs as detailed in the Notices of Variation enclosed effective from 29/07/2026.
