A proposed windfarm off the Dorset coast is now a joint venture.

The original developers Eneco have now gone 50-50 with EDF Energy on the planned 76 square mile Navitus Bay which they say could power up to 8 hundred thousand homes.

Campaigners say it'll have a negative impact on the environment and tourism, and last week an application for a hundred metre high weather mast to test the wind speed in Poole Bay was turned down by council planners.
