Description: The world's second largest offshore wind farm has been approved to be built off the coast of north Wales. The 250 turbines of Gwynt y Môr offshore wind farm will be built eight miles off the coast, 10 miles away from Llandudno, Conwy. Gwynt y Môr, combined with three other nearby wind farms, will provide enough green electricity to power the equivalent of 680,000 homes. It has been approved by the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). Energy and Climate Change Secretary Ed Miliband said the 750MW development by Npower Renewables Ltd will create a "powerhouse for renewable energy" off the north Wales coast. "The UK must clean up its energy supply to fight the damaging effects of climate change and more wind power will help us do this," he said. "The UK is leading the world in offshore wind, and the developments off the coast of north Wales will help keep us front runners." In granting approval, DECC took into account both the distance of the development from the shore and work
