Can you see any benefits or opportunities related to the environment for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Do you have any concerns related to the environment for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Please list and provide a brief explanation about your key concerns.
this covers an enormous area of Geographe Bay which will create a permanent visual and sound intrusion. It is very difficult to understand how this project is viable with the high upfront costs of installing and then maintaining an offshore wind farm compared to other low carbon emitting solutions eg solar, green hydrogen and nuclear. This offshore wind farm is remote from the major transmission lines whereas the alternatives of solar, green hydrogen and nuclear can be located close to the existing power generation plants using the existing transmission lines.
Do you have any concerns related to visual amenity for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Please explain why?
Geographe Bay is a unique bay worldwide and there should be NO visual intrusion of this natural environment which is frequented by tourist cruise liners every month.
Can you see any benefit or opportunities related to visual amenity for offshore wind development in this proposed area?
Can you see any benefits or opportunities related to the community and onshore transmission for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Do you have any concerns related to the community and onshore transmission for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Please list and provide a brief explanation about your key concerns.
again this will damage the visual amenity of this world renown area.
Can you see any benefits or opportunities related to fishing for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Do you have any concerns related to fishing for offshore renewable energy development in this proposed area?
Please list and provide a brief explanation about your key concerns.
fishing is likely to be restricted to set distances from the wind turbines plus the noise / frequency generated by the turbines is likely to be uncomfortable for fishing nearby.
Can you see any other benefits or opportunities for offshore wind energy development in this proposed area?
Do you have any other concerns for offshore wind energy development in this proposed area?
