Thanet Wind Farm viewed from Joss Bay. The wind farm is 12km off Foreness Point and covers an area of 13.5 square miles (35 km2), which includes numerous OS grid squares. The turbines spaced at 500 metres (1,600 ft) with 800 metres (2,600 ft) between the rows. The wind farm has operated since 2010 and consists of 100 Vestas wind turbines. When it was built it was the largest off-shore wind farm in the world.
