In March 2012, the Danish Government entered into an energy agreement with several other political parties from the Danish Parliament. The agreement secures the needed investments for a further step to improve Denmark’s production of renewable energy.

By the agreement the parties have decided to initiate a tendering process covering the installation of offshore wind turbines totalling 1,450 MW (including 450 MW near shore wind turbines that, however, is not included in this Prior Information Notice). The wind turbines are to be situated in the sites of Horns Rev III (400 MW) and Kriegers Flak (600 MW). The prospected offshore wind farm sites are located, respectively, in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea off the coast of Denmark.
