Danske Commodities has signed a power purchase agreement for electricity from the 400MW Dudgeon wind farm off east England.
The Danish energy trader will take over trading and balancing of 281MW from the site under a 15-year off-take deal.
Dudgeon, which is located off Norfolk and entered service in 2017, is owned by Equinor (35%), Masdar (35%) and China Resources (30%).
The deal marks Danske’s fourth long-term PPA in the UK market. In June, the energy trader inked a 20-year PPA with Hywind Scotland wind farm and earlier this month, a 15-year PPA with Sheringham Shoal wind farm.
Danske Commodities became part of Norwegian energy company Equinor on 1 February
“Together with Equinor, we are growing our portfolio and making renewables a profitable business – one project at a time,” said Danske Commodities chief executive Helle Ostergaard Kristiansen.
