Offshore wind farms are getting larger, and many are positioned further from shore than previously. This is significantly impacting the demand for HVDC transmission configurations. But with high costs and long lead times, not all offshore wind projects may secure the necessary transmission in time.
How big is the HVDC transmission demand and will all offshore wind projects who need it, be able to secure it on time?
🔹 With Aegir Quant we calculate optimized transmission configurations for all announced offshore wind projects in the world. Which offshore wind projects will need HVDC transmission and where could other options come into play?
🔹 Close to 30 announced projects and government auction areas across EMEA, covering almost 50 GW of potential capacity, could need HVDC configurations in the next 8 years – which of them will actually be built?
