To follow up on the market dialogue on Thor Offshore Wind Farm held in November 2019, the Danish Energy Agency now publishes answers to questions raised as part of the dialogue on the tender procedures.
On 25 November 2019, the Danish Energy Agency (DEA) and Energinet held a one-day conference on the tender for Thor Offshore Wind Farm, and during the days 26-28 November bilateral meetings with potential bidders were also held.
As part of the market dialogue, potential bidders had the opportunity to ask questions in writing, and it is the answers to these questions that the DEA and Energinet now publishes in a comprehensive Q&A-report.
The published questions and answers clarify a range of issues in the tender, hereunder about the time-table, the process for environmental assessments, the subsidy scheme, the capacity for the wind farm, the grid connection, prequalification, etc.
There are some questions, which remains to be answered, and which will be published in the coming period at the Thor-website and through the Thor-newsletter.
