Abstract
- The article informs that the development of the world's largest offshore wind farm is under threat because of Sterling weakness. The pound's fall in value against the Euro has increased the cost of wind turbine components for the 1GW London Array. The project would be situated in the Thames Estuary, east of London, and will consist of up to 271 turbines, generating enough power for 750,000 homes.
