Eneco and Equinor will join forces for the offshore wind tenders for the IJmuiden Ver Alpha and Beta offshore wind sites in the Netherlands.
The developments are important to the Dutch Offshore Wind Energy Roadmap, adding 4GW of offshore wind power to the Dutch energy mix.
Eneco is a renewable energy company and offshore wind developer in the Netherlands and Belgium with projects such as Hollandse Kust (west) 6, Hollandse Kust (noord) 5, Borssele 3 & 4 in the Netherlands and Norther in Belgium.
It has the ambition to further grow its offshore wind portfolio, one of the pillars of its goal of climate neutrality in 2035.
Equinor has already developed a large global renewable portfolio and has the ambition to further grow this to 12GW to 16GW in 2030.
Equinor is building Dogger Bank in the North Sea, which will be the world’s largest offshore wind farm.
It also operates other offshore wind farms in the North Sea such as Hywind Tampen in Norway and Sheringham Shoal, Dudgeon, and Hywind Scotland in the UK.
