The plan does not set a maximum capacity limit for bidders; however, the environmental assessment includes minimum and maximum scenarios of 5,000 MW and 17,445 MW, respectively.
In this new offshore wind scenario, the plan area is divided into two sub-areas, with provisions for grid connection points capable of receiving a minimum of 3,000 MW, enough to supply energy to 3 million Danish households. The environmental assessment of the plan indicates that sub-area 1 allows for grid connections of 2,000 MW at Endrup and 1,000 MW at Idomlund.
As part of the process, the Danish Energy Agency has held hearings and public meetings in 2023 and 2024, where citizens, stakeholders, and authorities have submitted ideas, proposals, concerns, and questions regarding the draft plan and its accompanying environmental report. The plan alone does not permit the establishment of facilities.
The decision from the Danish Energy Agency can be appealed to the Energy Appeals Board within four weeks, until October 29, 2024.
The first three offshore wind farms in North Sea I, A1-A3 in sub-area 1, were put out to tender on April 22, 2024, as part of the agency's 6 GW offshore wind tender. The deadline for bids on projects A1, A2, and A3 is December 5, 2024, after which concession winners will be determined. The winner of each tender will need to conduct an environmental impact assessment of the specific offshore wind farm. There has not yet been a tender initiated for sub-area 2.
