Eneos Renewable Energy to acquire 20% stake in Norwegian wind farm
ENEOS Holdings’ renewable energy division, Eneos Renewable Energy, has agreed to purchase a 20% interest in the GoliatVind floating offshore wind farm project in Norway.
The project, situated on the boundary of the northern Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea, will have an installed capacity of 75MW, with five 15MW wind turbines mounted on Odfjell Oceanwind’s semi-submersible steel foundations.
Targeting a commercial operation date of 2028, the GoliatVind project’s other stakeholders are Source Galileo, Odfjell Oceanwind and the Kansai Electric Power Group.
Galileo Norge owns the largest share at 40% and the other partners each hold 20%.
Floating offshore wind power is still in its initial stages in Japan. The country considers it as crucial to its target of building up to 45GW of offshore wind projects by 2040.
