Vattenfall will participate in the offshore wind park tender for Hollandse Kust West (HKW) Sites VI and VII in the Netherlands, partnering with BASF for Site VI. The Hollandse Kust West wind project zone is located approximately 53 km off the west coast of the Netherlands. The full area is auctioned in two separate tenders (Site VI and Site VII), which will accommodate 700 MW of offshore wind power capacity each. To win the tender for Site VI the bidding parties have to include ecological measures in their concept, whereas Site VII requires investments and innovations which are beneficial for the Dutch Energy System. The tenders for both sites close on 12 May 2022. A decision on who won the tender is scheduled after summer. First power generation is scheduled expected in 2026.
