Norway-headquartered Deep Wind Offshore is submitting a permit application for the construction and operation of an offshore wind farm off the south coast of Sweden.
Located in the Gulf of Bothnia, northeast of Gävleborg and Uppsala counties, the Olof Skötkonung wind farm will include a maximum of 70 wind turbines.
The planned wind farm project is estimated to be able to produce approximately 7,5 TWh of electricity per year, which corresponds to large parts of Gävleborg’s and Uppsala county’s electricity consumption. The wind farm’s electricity production can also help large emitters in the surrounding area to adjust. In total, the park is estimated to lead to reduced carbon emissions by 3,2 million tonnes, covering a great deal of emissions from industry, waste and power production in the area, the developer said.
”Deep Wind Offshore sees great potential for offshore wind power in Sweden. The last two years we have been working on two area, and submitting the application is really a milestone for the company,” said Knut Vassbotn, CEO of Deep Wind Offshore.
Deep Wind Offshore, an international developer and owner of offshore wind farms, works in partnership with bp on the projects in South Korea and EDF Renewables on the projects in Norway. It has a portfolio of more than 10 GW – including 2 GW under exclusive development in South Korea.
