Who are we?

Slay The Array is a co-ordinating alliance of people who oppose the Atlantic Array – a plan by RWE/nPower which aims to put between 188 and 417 giant wind turbines in the mouth of the Bristol Channel, starting in 2015.

According to the RWE/npower plan the turbines would be around 700 feet high and cover an area of around 500 square kilometres, starting 13km (8 miles) north of Lundy island.
Slay The Array will bring together people, information, resources and ideas to make sure that we concentrate all our efforts on making sure that it is never built.

This website was created on 1 December 2011. It will grow and expand as we develop and more people join us. Keep visiting to see how we grow, and tell everyone who sympathises with us to visit us too. In the meantime, here are two important questions. Click on them to see the answers.

•  Why are we opposed to this plan for mass renewable energy?
