A coastal offshore wind farm off Frederikshavn has come a significant step closer.
Thus, the Danish Energy Agency has assessed on Tuesday that the environmental impact report for Frederikshavn Offshore Wind Farm meets the law's requirements for content, and that "on the present basis, it cannot be rejected as relevant to exploit the energy in the area", writes the Danish Energy Agency in a press release.
It is European Energy that is behind the plans for the wind farm, which includes the installation of up to five offshore wind turbines with an installed power of between 21.6-72 MW within an approx. 5.5 km2 large area. The individual turbines will have a maximum height of 265 m.
With the approval of the environmental impact report from the Danish Energy Agency, the report can now be sent for an eight-week public consultation, just as a citizens' meeting must be held about the project. After the consultation, an establishment permit can be applied for.
It is expected that the consultation for the project will be started at the end of May this year. The citizens' meeting will be held on 2 June 2022 at 19.00 in Det Musiske Hus in Frederikshavn. Both European Energy and the Danish Energy Agency will be present here.
The feasibility study area is approx. 4.5 km east of Frederikshavn Harbour. The distance to the coast is approx. four km.
