The Najaderna wind project comprises up to 67 wind turbines with an estimated annual electricity production of 4–5 TWh. A permit application has now been submitted to the government and the Land and Environment Court.
The Najaderna wind power project is located approximately 17 kilometers off the coast within Tierp municipality in Uppsala County and extends into Sweden’s economic zone. The project is in an area designated as suitable for energy extraction through offshore wind power. It could be completed by the beginning of the 2030s.
Since the project is located both in territorial waters and in Sweden’s economic zone, the permit application has been submitted to both the Land and Environment Court and the government. The permit application, including an environmental impact assessment, will be sent out for consultation to relevant stakeholders before a decision is made on the permit.
In 2023, Eolus has applied for permits for three offshore wind power projects: Västvind in Kattegatt outside Gothenburg, Arkona off the southern coast of Sweden, and Najaderna in the Bothnian Sea outside Tierp.
