Vattenfall wins bid to develop Denmark's 1.8 GW offshore wind projects

Vattenfall submitted the lowest bid for both sites, offering a strike price of DKK 504/MWh for Nordsøen Midt and DKK 542/MWh for Hesselø. Two bids were received for Nordsøen Midt and five for Hesselø. Both projects were tendered with the possibility of state support. The tender closed on 20 May 2026 under a framework launched in November 2025 by the former Danish government. Contract signing will follow once documentation and legal requirements are verified. Electricity generation is expected from 2032, with Hesselø located roughly 30 km off northern Zealand and Nordsøen Midt about 20 km off western Jutland.
