Skidbladner



SeaSapphire is investigating possibility for establishing an offshore windfarm in the Baltic Sea within the Swedish Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The park plans to build max. 111 floating wind turbines just over 20 km north of the island Gotska Sandön. Skidbladner Floating Wind could potentially produce 11.7 TWh of electricity per year, which equates the generation of electricity for a million homes.
The Skidbladner Floating Wind will consist of wind turbines mounted on the floating foundations, which will be anchored to the sea bottom. The forthcoming permit application concerns wind turbines with a maximum height of 360 meters.
The project area has been selected through screening of, opposing interests, electricity needs, biological and geological conditions among other factors.
New offshore wind power within the project area will significantly contribute to both national and regional expansion targets for renewable energy production. Increased electricity production in the region could also potentially contribute to lower electricity prices, business opportunities and the transition to an electrified society.
