Now, through the new political agreement, the so-called “overplanting” option – freedom to set up more offshore wind on the tendered locations than what was agreed in the climate agreement and other political agreements – has been given the green light for projects at North Sea I (Nordsøen I), Kriegers Flak II and Kattegat II areas.

At Hesselø and Bornholm Energy Island, only a more limited overplanting can be permitted, meaning a total capacity of 1.2 GW for Hesselø and 3.8 GW for Bornholm Energy Island.
