Following several months of geophysical surveys using 3D seabed scanning, the next phase of development for the Jammerland Bugt Offshore Wind Farm is under way. Geotechnical surveys have now commenced and will inform the final design of the project ahead of construction. These surveys involve drilling boreholes in the seabed at the planned locations for the 16 wind turbines, as well as along the proposed cable route to shore. The aim is to gather detailed data on seabed conditions to support accurate and safe planning of foundations and cable installation.
Work at Jammerland Bugt is expected to continue until July, after which the mobile drilling platform will be relocated to the Lillebælt Syd area to begin similar investigations for the Lillebælt Syd Offshore Wind Farm. Additional surveys for Jammerland Bugt, both offshore and on land, will follow later in the year to support planning for the export cables. These investigations are expected to run until September.
TotalEnergies and project partner European Energy have completed environmental assessments for the wind farm, which have been approved by the Danish Energy Agency. The assessments outline measures to minimise impact on the natural and marine environment.
Construction of the project was approved in December 2024. Building work is expected to start in 2027, with electricity production scheduled to begin in 2029. The wind farm will have a capacity of 240 MW and will consist of 16 turbines, each rated at 15 MW and standing 256 metres tall. TotalEnergies holds an 85% ownership share, with European Energy holding the remaining 15%.
