The County Administrative Board of Halland has given its approval to the 1.7 GW offshore wind farm Galatea-Galene, being developed by OX2 in Sweden’s exclusive economic zone, some 25 kilometres off the coast of Halland.
The County Administrative Board said the government can give permission for the project to be built according to the Act on Sweden’s exclusive economic zone. Prior to obtaining the county’s approval, OX2 also got the green light from the Swedish Armed Forces for the northern part of the wind farm, while the dialogue for the southern area is still underway.
