# The Rampion 2 Offshore Wind Farm Order 2025, Paragraph 1: Design parameters

Extent: E+W+S

(1) The total number of wind turbine generators comprised in the authorised scheme must be no more than 90 having a total rotor swept area of no more than 4.45 square kilometres.
(2) Subject to sub-paragraph (3), each wind turbine generator forming part of the authorised scheme must have—
(a) a height of no more than 325 metres when measured from LAT to the tip of the vertical blade;
(b) a rotor diameter of no more than 295 metres;
(c) a distance of no less than 22 metres from MHWS to the lowest point of the rotating blade; or
(d) a distance of no less than 830 metres from the nearest wind turbine generator in all directions,
and the authorised scheme will comprise turbines of a uniform height and rotor diameter.
(3) The reference in sub-paragraph (2)(d) to the location of a wind turbine generator is a reference to the centre point of that wind turbine generator.
(4) Wind turbine generator foundation structures forming part of the authorised scheme must have either a monopile foundation, or multileg foundation.
(5) Wind turbine generator—
(a) multileg foundations employing pin piles forming part of the authorised scheme must have—
(i) no more than 4 legs per foundation;
(ii) no more than 4 pin piles per foundation; and
(iii) a pin pile diameter of no greater than 4.5 metres;
(b) multileg foundations with suction bucket must have—
(i) no more than 4 legs per wind turbine generator;
(ii) a suction bucket diameter of no more than 15 metres; and
(iii) a suction bucket penetration of no more than 25 metres; and
(c) monopile foundation forming part of the authorised scheme may have a diameter no greater than 13.5 metres.
(6) The total volume of scour protection for wind turbine generators (where necessary) must be no more than 1,215,000 cubic metres with a maximum footprint of 405,000 square metres.
