Dudgeon Offshore Wind Limited is developing an offshore wind farm, known as the Dudgeon Offshore Wind Farm (Dudgeon), sited approximately 32km off Cromer on the north Norfolk coast. The Dudgeon project will require an onshore electrical connection in order to feed into the national electricity network. The proposed onshore development comprises a 45km buried cable system, running between the landfall point at Weybourne Hope (North Norfolk District) and Little Dunham (Breckland District). The onshore development will also include a new electrical substation just south of Little Dunham. 

Dudgeon Offshore Wind Limited is keen to hear the views of the local community about the onshore elements of this project and has arranged three public exhibitions where members of the public will have the opportunity to ask questions and to learn about the Dudgeon project in more detail. Exhibitions are planned as follows:

 • Tuesday 17th November 2009, Fakenham Parish Church, 1pm – 8pm
• Wednesday 18th Nov. 2009, Necton Rural Community Centre (Village Hall), 12am – 7pm
• Thursday 19th November 2009, Holt Community Centre, 1pm – 8pm

 The exhibitions will be manned by key members of the project team and will include displays providing detail on the Dudgeon project and the associated engineering and environmental studies being undertaken for the development.
