Belated birthday greetings to the Humber Gateway Windfarm which became operational in autumn 2015 - it was officially opened by energy minister Andrea Leadsom MP in September of that year. The 73 turbines are said to provide enough electricity for around 170,000 homes. Its control room - officially opened by former local government minister Eric Pickles - is in Grimsby where there is also a pontoon which provides a berth for three service vessels. The windfarm is located 8km off the Yorkshire coast but is clearly visible on most days from Cleethorpes.
