RES WELCOMES APPROVAL ON JACK'S LANE WIND FARM

RES today welcomed the decision by an independent Planning Inspector to give planning consent for a 6-turbine wind farm at Jack's Lane, between North Creake, Syderstone and Stanhoe, near Fakenham in North West Norfolk.

The Jack's Lane Wind Farm proposal was reviewed at a Public Inquiry in February this year, after RES appealed against King's Lynn & West Norfolk Borough Council's decision to reject the planning application - despite receiving more than 700 letters in support of the proposal, compared to 635 against. The Public Inquiry lasted four weeks, during which RES's project was considered alongside another proposed wind farm at nearby Chiplow.
