Self Help

I have realised that I have not put all I have into doing everything but I have and my team have worked together well when we first started but slowly when we got more involved into the documentary we separated each doing are own thing but still doing work together but not always getting what we wanted at the time.

I think a lot to do with why we slowly separated as a team is to with the fact that we didn't organise when we where going to do something in fall extent and really know what everybody was doing at the time.

But luckily  we have talked to each other after are filming and agreed that we need to be more verbally and fiscally be doing something as a team at thee same time and now when not to be. 

Me as a person when I am involved in the team I realised I mite be clueless at some points with the team on what we are doing at the time but i have become better at what we do as a team.

Start To End

when we first started with making up are ideas in are group we had to make the documentary around nature my group had quit a few ideas on what they wanted to do. I had the idea of doing a documentary on the difference between zoo animals and home pets and how they live and sleep day bye day.

The others in my group Sam, Josh and Troy they had ideas such as showing what a dog would go through from being a stray to being rescued and going home with a new owner. Troy wanted to do a documentary on barn owls. and Sam wanted to do a documentary on wind turbines which is the documentary idea that we went with and that Helene are course leader liked the most and we agreed.

Questions over Port of Sheerness Wind Farm Ltd plans for four wind turbines in the docks after fresh details submitted

Plans to build four wind turbines in Sheerness Docks could be revived.

Swale council originally gave the go-ahead to Port of Sheerness Wind Farm Ltd to build the 125m tall structures in March 2009.

But work to construct them along the Lappel Bank never got under way.

There was fierce opposition to the scheme at the time, particularly from Queenborough residents.

Details relating to the original application were submitted to Swale council this week, leading to questions about whether the company will now move forward with its original plans.

They include a layout showing the site’s boundary and office facilities to be used by contractors and for the storage of equipment, which it says are to be used after March this year.

It also includes a piling risk assessment which is a report setting out how boring into the reclaimed land to be used for the turbines will be carried out and whether there are any dangers of contamination.

Peel Ports said in October 2011 it was not planning to proceed with the development in the short term.

It said it would review its options when a decision was made about the Vestas plan to build an off-shore turbine manufacturing base at the port.

The Danish company later pulled out of proposals to take over 70 hectares of land for the plant, which might have created 2,000 jobs.

It had been thought construction of the wind farm would have started in early 2011 but this did not go ahead.

At the time of going to press, a representative from the Port of Sheerness Wind Farm Ltd was unavailable for comment so it is unclear exactly when it intends to begin construction or if it will need to resubmit for permission as five years have passed since it was first approved.

Peel Energy is pleased to announce it has reached financial close for the Port of Sheerness Wind Farm project with KfW IPEX-Bank as the funding partner. This milestone marks the completion of all key contracts necessary to deliver this £16 million project.

Construction of the 4 turbine wind farm on the Lappel Bank dock wall at the Port of Sheerness, adjacent to Medway estuary in Kent, commenced in July of this year. Good progress has been made on the sub-station and turbine foundations through the summer; all tower bases have been poured. Turbines are planned to be delivered to the site in the second quarter of 2016 and the wind farm is expected to be fully commissioned in the third quarter of 2016. 

Muir Miller, Managing Director of Peel Energy said “Financial close for Port of Sheerness wind farm demonstrates the team’s determination, perseverance and patience in working through a number of challenges on the site. We are delighted to expand our relationship with KfW IPEX-Bank and look forward to completing the project over the coming year.” 

Thomas Brehler, Global Head of Power, Renewables and Water at KfW IPEX-Bank said: "As one of the world's leading providers of wind energy finance we are once again underlining our structuring expertise in the wind sector with this commitment. We are pleased to contribute to the production of renewable energy in England and are very happy to complete this second funding agreement with Peel Energy.” 

Last year Peel Ports announced its commitment to the region with the development of the Port of Sheerness Master Plan, created to inform the local community and key stakeholders of its proposals for sustainable expansion of the port estate. 

The Master Plan also details Peel Ports’ ambition to create around 1,250 jobs over the next 20 years, enabling it to remain a key employer and investor in the region.
