Denmarks’ ambitious green energy policy

Ambitious green energy policy: long-term goal for 2050 – independence of fossil fuels

Stable regulatory framework to 2020

Offshore wind broad political support – 95 % of the Danish Parliament

Effects in 2020 50 percent of our electricity consumption from wind power


New Offshore Wind projects in Denmark

Horns Rev 3: 400 MWKriegers Flak: 600 MW

Tender for 450 MW near shore wind farms

50 MW turbines for research and development


Preparing for the future


The Danish offshore approach

Planning and pre-investigations

Predictable income

DEA is one stop shop

Grid connection – large scale and near shore

A track record of political stability

No requirement for local content

Transparent and flexible tender process


Integration of wind power

Strong interconnectors

A well functioning international market for electricity

Flexible electricity consumption


Horns Rev 3 and Kriegers Flak

The sites chosen for tender ranked the highest in the economic ranking

The most attractive sites

Horns Rev 3

Kriegers Flak


Horns Rev 3 400 MW in the North Sea

Denmark's 14th offshore wind farm

Local competences and network of suppliers

North Sea has good wind conditions

Sea depths of less than 20 metres


Kriegers Flak 600 MW in the Baltic Sea

Denmark's largest offshore wind farm

Located in the Baltic Sea close to borders of Sweden and Germany

Will also be linked to the German farm - power can be led to both countries

Good wind conditions

Kriegers Flak


We are transparent

Dialogue and negotiation

Call for tenders September 2015

Pre-investigations: Geological, EIA and MetOcean

Grid connection

Local joint ownership


The Danish TSO - Energinet.dk

Independent public enterprise – owns and operates highways of energy (electricity and gas)

Energinet.dk is to ensure security of supply

Our finances must break even – non-profit

We develop a more flexible power system


Roles of Energinet.dk in OWF

Finance, construct and operate platform and sea cable

Bringing power from new OWF ashore and strengthen grid

Secure that grid connection is available in due time

During the last year requested by DEA to conduct pre-investigations and EIA for future offshore wind farms


Investigations conducted until now- Horns Rev 3 and Kriegers Flak

UXO-deskstudy (Unexploded Ordnance on/below seabed)

Geophysical investigations in wind farm areas

Geotechnical tender

EIA-surveys initiated


App. 190 km2 pre-investigation area

Horns Rev 3


Horns Rev 3 project facts

Distance to shore 10 – 30 km

Distance to harbour 25 – 55 km

Mean wind speed 9.8 m/s

Water depth 10 – 20 m

Tide Yes, 1 – 2 meter


App. 250 km2 pre-investigation area

Kriegers Flak

Kriegers Flak

110 km2

69 km2


Kriegers Flak project facts

Distance to shore 15 km from Møn

Distance to harbour 20 – 40 km

Mean wind speed 9.5 m/s

Water depth 15 – 30 m

Seabottom Sand and residual sediments (from moraine/till deposits) – risk of boulders

Tide No


Grid Connections

Energinet.dk establish the offshore platform, the sub-sea cable and the onshore grid connections

The developer is responsible for inter-array cabling in the OWF and connecting to the platforms

OWF will be connected to the platforms at 33 or 66kV

Expenses of Energinet.dk is paid by Danish consumers; not the developer/owner of the OWF’s

Construction of the platforms will be initiated in 2014 and finalized in 2016/2018
