Vattenfall s two windfarm projects off the coast of Norfolk have taken another tentative step forward following an update from the Secretary of State.
The Vanguard project - which has been delayed following a high court ruling over planning procedures - has moved to the next stage of talks after the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy asked for further comments from parties involved.
Vanguard s sister project Boreas has also moved forward with the Secretary of State asking for further information on the project from Norfolk Boreas, National Grid, Network Rail Infrastructure, the Environment Agency and all other interested parties.
