Wind Energy – Denmark
Energinet has awarded a contract worth EUR 13 million to Fugro to deploy floating LiDARs for wind measurement campaigns at four new offshore wind farm sites in Denmark.
The Danish government has designated these new sites, which could add as much as 7.2 GW of new capacity, to be North Sea I (Nordsø I), Kattegat II, Kriegers Flak II, and Hesselø.
Fugro will deploy two floating LiDAR buoys in the Kattegat Sea and three floating LiDARs in the North Sea I area, with one additional buoy to be kept in reserve for contingency.
The Kriegers Flak II offshore wind area in the Baltic Sea will also have two floating LiDARs deployed, along with one buoy in reserve. These twelve-month contracts will contain an option for either another twelve-month period or month-to-month extensions for up to six months.
