The world's biggest offshore wind farm off Kent has been officially opened.
Swedish energy giant Vattenfall said the 100 turbines are expected to generate enough electricity to power 200,000 homes.
Construction work at the £780m wind farm began two years ago and was completed in June.
The 380ft (115m) tall turbines are spread over an area of more than 35 sq km and are visible from the shore on a clear day.
There are currently about 250 wind farms operating in the UK, with a further 12 offshore, with 2,909 turbines in operation in total.
