Redmere - Expected Timeline
Early Engagement - Get Involved
Alongside local drop-in events, you can also view the project information booklet here and provide feedback via an online feedback form. This feedback form will be available until 9th November.
At what stage is the project?
The project has submitted a request for Scoping Opinion to the Planning Inspectorate. This follows early survey work, including seasonal surveys and feasibility work.
Once feedback on the proposed survey and assessment work has been received, work will progress on detailed technical assessment and environmental studies. This will inform detailed design work to develop a site layout, visualisations, transport and access proposals and plans for any mitigation and biodiversity plans.
Thank you for attending local drop-ins
More than 300 people attended recent drop in events to introduce the project to local people.
Further events will follow in early 2027 when more detailed information, including visualisations, will be available.
You can still complete the feedback form available above and view the project information booklet.

Chatteris Wind Farm
We are progressing another wind farm, known as Chatteris Wind Farm, approximately 20km to the west of the Redmere Wind Farm. These are two separate projects, applying for separate development consent orders. As they have similar project programs, we are engaging with communities about both projects because we understand that many residents will be interested in both projects.
