Peel Wind’s Development Manager Richard Dibley said that he was delighted that the scheme had been approved.
Dibley said: “We truly believe the industrial setting at the port is a great place for a small wind farm and are very pleased the council has approved our plans.
“The vast majority of feedback to the scheme has been extremely positive, but we recognize that a wind farm development is something new for many people.
“Over the coming months, and indeed years, we are determined to work closely with local communities and keep residents involved in the progress of the wind farm at every stage.”
However, the wind farm had been opposed by members of conservation groups including the Queenborough and Sheerness societies, as well as Queenborough Town Council.
