Germany has rejected a request from TotalEnergies to return one of its offshore wind sites in the North Sea to the State, with the country’s economy minister underlining that a concession award constitutes a binding commitment, according to a Bloomberg report from 17 June .
The minister’s comment comes days after TotalEnergies confirmed it had been unable to reach an agreement with German authorities on the return of its concession for the site N-11.2, where the company has been developing its 1.5 GW NordseeEnergies 2 (NSE2) offshore wind project.
