On 07 January 2026, the UK government announced that the deadline for the final determination on the Dogger Bank South (DBS) Development Consent Order has been reset to 30 April 2026.
RWE and Masdar are disappointed by the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero’s decision to delay the Development Consent Order for the 3GW DBS offshore wind farms. The partners will continue to work with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and relevant stakeholders to provide any information required to progress the projects, which have the potential to power around three million homes and support thousands of jobs. We remain committed to supporting the energy transformation in the UK.
