Shell Flat CFSA
In 2003 an application was submitted by Cirrus Energy to the DTI (now BERR) for the development of a 324MW (90 turbine) offshore windfarm, located on a sandbank protruding 20km out from the coast between Blackpool and Cleveleys. The development was commonly known as the Shell Flat Offshore Windfarm.
In January 2007 a new application was submitted for a relocated site to the north of the original location to mitigate a number of issues that arose. This new site was renamed Cirrus Shell Flat Array (CSFA). The CSFA windfarm proposal is for upto 90 turbines with a maximum total nominal rating of up to 284 MW. The S36 application is currently in the planning process.
In November 2008 it was decided to close down this development.
