The German Federal Network Agency released the results of its offshore wind tender regarding four areas in the North Sea with a total capacity of 1,800 MW; the tender raised €785m in proceeds. RWE secured rights for N-3.5 (420 MW) and N-3.6 (480 MW) projects, part of Nordseecluster B, located around 50 km north of the island of Juist. Commissioning is scheduled for 2029.
In addition, the company won the N-6.6 site (630 MW), where Vattenfall, with entry rights, can join RWE’s bid. Site N-6.6 is a pre-investigated area located around 50 km northwest of the Nordseecluster. Waterkant Energy received the award for N-6.7 (270 MW) without entry rights. The granted rights encompass the establishment, building, and operation of the projects that are assured of securing grid connections.
