Dong extends offshore UK wind investment

Denmark based Dong Energy has announced that it will build a second offshore wind farm in the Irish Sea as part of a €1.3 million (US$ 1.7 million) investment plan.

The decision came after the announcement of the UK government's budget which included an increase in support for offshore projects to two Renewable Obligation Certificates (ROCs) for each MWH of power produced.
