Wind Energy – IJmuiden Ver and Nederwiek
The Dutch Ministry of Climate Policy and Green Growth has decided to split the sites for the IJmuiden Ver Gamma and Nederwiek I wind farms into four smaller 1 GW sites to reduce the financial risks for offshore wind farm developers.
It has been decided to divide the 2 GW IJmuiden Ver Gamma into two sections: IJmuiden Ver Gamma-A, located on the eastern side, and IJmuiden Ver Gamma-B, on the western side. Similarly, the 2 GW Nederwiek I will be split into Nederwiek IA, the southern section, and Nederwiek IB, the northern section.
Each site can support an offshore wind farm with a 1 GW capacity.
The IJmuiden Ver Wind Farm Zone contains three 2 GW sites: Alpha, Beta, and Gamma. The total area of the four lots in the zone is approximately 650 square kilometres.
