Procedure

Title : North Sea I, South, Offshore Wind Farm

Description : The Danish Parliament has in recent years agreed to a large expansion in offshore wind farms in Denmark. The aim is to ensure the green transition and strengthening the future security of supply of energy in Denmark. The political agreements that this procurement concerns are: - Climate Agreement from 29 June 2018, - Climate Agreement from 22 June 2020, - the Financial Act from 4 December 2022, - Climate Agreement regarding green electricity and heat from 25 June 2022 - Additional Agreement on the procurement details regarding 6 GW offshore wind and Energy Island Bornholm from May 30 2023, and - Agreement on procurement frameworks for three offshore wind farms from 19 May 2025 as adjusted on 7 November 2025. This procurement concerns the establishment of one (1) new large-scale offshore wind farm named North Sea I, South, pursuant to the directive 2014/24/EU on public procurement as implemented into Danish law by the Danish Public Procurement Act, cf. consolidated act no. 116 of 3 February 2025 with later amendments (in Danish: Udbudsloven). The procurement procedure applicable to this procurement constitutes an open procedure, cf. section 56 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. The Concessionaire is granted a right and obligations to utilise the concession area for the establishment and operation of an offshore wind farm with a minimum capacity of 1 GW for the purpose of producing and distributing electricity at the sole risk and expense of the Concessionaire. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the concessionaire of North Sea I, South Offshore Wind Farm, will be economically supported for the electricity produced from the minimum capacity by a capability based two-way contract for difference (“CfD”) scheme for a period of 20 years. Under the capability-based two-way CfD scheme, the Concessionaire must make payments to the Danish State in months where the strike price (equal to the “bid price” of the Successful Tenderer) is lower than the reference price (to be calculated by the DEA as the weighted monthly average of the day-ahead prices, weighted by the maximum power production capability of the turbines or “Available Active Power” as further set out in the procurements material). There is no cap on the payments from the Concessionaire to the Danish State, and the Concessionaire has no option to opt out of the capability-based two-way CfD scheme. Correspondingly, in months where the strike price is higher than the reference price, the Concessionaire will receive subsidies up to cap of 6.6 billion DKK excl. VAT (2025-prices) in the form of payments from the Danish State. Reference is made to the Annex F (Concession Agreement) and Appendix 3 (Capability-Based Two-Way Contract for Difference) for an overall description of the principles in capability-based two-way CfD scheme. The scheme constitutes State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). Please note that the name of the offshore wind farm can be changed by the Danish Energy Agency (“DEA”). Such change will not affect the geographical location of the offshore wind farm. The North Sea I, South will in the following be called “the Offshore Wind Farm”. The minimum capacity of the Offshore Wind Farm shall be established no later 31 December 2034. The concessionaire will in special cases be entitled to an extension of this deadline. Connection of the Offshore Wind Farm to the Danish transmission grid is voluntary for the concessionaire. The Concession Agreement further enables the Concessionaire to establish overplanting capacity in excess of the required minimum capacity within the concession area, i.e. it is optional for Concessionaire to establish more than 1 GW capacity within the Concession Area. Furthermore, the Concessionaire may exploit the production capacity of electricity from the Offshore Wind Farm for energy production, such as but not limited to innovative energy production (e.g. Power-to-X), if this is otherwise possible within the applicable legislation. With the sole exception of the capability-based two-way CfD scheme, the Concessionaire bears all commercial risks associated with the establishment, operation and decommissioning of the Offshore Wind Farm, including any potential overplanting capacity. Such commercial risks include but is not limited to, legislative changes and general market conditions and demands. Additionally, the Concessionaire is responsible for the commercial risks related to any innovative energy production (e.g. Power-to-X facility). The Concessionaire shall bear the costs as stipulated in the construction permit and/or procurement material. Please note that contrary to earlier procurements rounds concerning offshore wind the Concessionaire shall not bear the actual cost of the temporary and permanent preventive measures, which by decision of the Danish Defence must be implemented by the Concessionaire to prevent deteriorations in the quality of the current military radio communication and radar surveillance caused by the Offshore Wind Farm. Such costs will be borne by the Danish Defence. Furthermore, contrary to earlier procurements rounds for offshore wind, the Concessionaire shall not pay the cost of the offshore preliminary investigations performed by Energinet, cf. section 23 (3) of the Renewable Energy Act (RE Act), statutory order no. 132 of 6 February 2024. Such costs will be borne by the Danish State. The location site of the Offshore Wind Farm is further stated below under section "Place of Performance" as well as in the procurement material Appendix 2 (Location of the Concession Area). Reference is further made to the regulation in the Procurement Specifications, Annex F (Concession Agreement), Appendix 1 (Project Specification), and the procurement material as a whole.

General information

Additional information : Regarding tender submission deadline: Please note that due to a system error, the deadline for submission of tender is displayed in a different time zone. The deadline for submission of tender is 23 October 2028 at 14:00 p.m. (local Danish time). Regarding supplementary information: The Danish Energy Agency may use the procedure of section 159(5) of the Danish Public Procurement Act in the event that tenders do not comply with the formal requirements of the tender documents. Regarding tender validity: The Tenderer must keep its tender open for acceptance for eight (8) months from expiry of the tender submission deadline. If the DEA considers it appropriate due to delays resulting from the procedures pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2022/2560 on foreign subsidies or the Danish Investment Screening Act, the DEA may invite all Tenderers to accept an extension of the period in which they must keep their tenders open for acceptance. All Tenderers will in this situation be free to decide whether to accept the extension of the tender validity period as proposed by the DEA. Where a Tenderer does not accept an extension of the tender validity period, the tender of such Tenderer will expire at the end of the initial tender validity period of eight (8) month from the tender submission deadline and such Tenderer will no longer be considered for the award of the Concession Agreement. If Regulation (EU) 2022/2560 on foreign subsidies does not prevent the award of the Concession Agreement at such time, the DEA may at any time choose to award the Concession Agreement to the Tenderer who has submitted the tender with the lowest bid price, subject to this Tenderer obtaining the necessary authorisation pursuant to the Danish Investment Screening Act if relevant. In this case the Tenderer, to whom the DEA awards the Concession Agreement, must keep its tender open for acceptance until conclusion of the Concession Agreement. Regarding the estimated value of the concession: The estimated value of the concession is 6,600,000,000.00 DKK covering the required establishment of an offshore wind farm with a production capacity of electricity of 1 GW. Regarding the decision not to divide the contract into lots: Due to the contract’s technical characteristics, financing conditions, risk and liability allocation, and the need for long-term operational optimization, the DEA deems that dividing the contract into lots would not be appropriate. The contracting authority therefore finds that a single concession contract will ensure the most advantageous technical and economic solution, as well as the optimal allocation of risk and responsibility. Regarding the exclusion grounds: Furthermore, a Tenderer must include in the tender an ESPD, as described further in the Procurement Specifications, section 6 and 7, as preliminary proof of the conditions specified in section 148 of the consolidated act no. 116 of 3 February 2025 (Danish Public Procurement Act) with later amendments. Upon request, the Tenderer to whom the DEA intends to award the Concession Agreement, or all Tenderers must submit documentation regarding the information stated in the ESPD, cf. section 151(1) or 151(2) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. Furthermore, if the Tenderer relies on the capacity of other entities and/or if the Tenderer consists of a group of economic operators a separate ESPD, must be submitted for each of the participating entities and the ESPD shall each contain the relevant information. If the Tenderer relies on the capacities of other entities and/or if the Tenderer consists of a group of economic entities, the documentation regarding the information stated in the ESPD must be submitted for each participating entity. The documentation regarding the exclusion grounds can consist of the following: - An extract from the relevant register, such as judicial records or, failing that, of an equivalent document issued by a competent judicial or administrative authority in the Member State or country of origin or the country where the economic operator is established showing that the economic operator is not covered by the exclusion grounds listed in section 135 (1) of the Danish Public Procurement Act, and - A certificate issued by the competent authority in the Member State or country concerned, showing that the economic operator is not covered by the exclusion grounds listed in section 135 (3) and section 137 (1), no. 2. Where the Member State or country in question does not issue such documents or certificates, or where these do not cover all the exclusion grounds, they may be replaced by a declaration on oath. In Member States or countries where there is no provision for declarations on oath, a solemn declaration made by the person concerned before a competent judicial or administrative authority, a notary or a competent professional or trade body, in the Member State or country of origin or in the Member State or country where the economic operator is established, may be used. It is accentuated that the documentation must also include documentation regarding the exclusion ground in section 135 (2) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. The DEA will generally accept the documentation, which is listed in e-Certis for the relevant country, cf. section 152 (3) of the Danish Public Procurement Act. For groups of entities, and/or if a Tenderer relies on the technical and professional capacity of other entities, documentation regarding such other entities must also be provided. Where a Tenderer is covered by one of the exclusion grounds as stated under the section "Participation" and further in the Procurement Specifications, the DEA will allow the Tenderer to demonstrate its reliability in accordance with section 138 of the Danish Public Procurement Act. Reference is further made to the Procurement Specifications, section 6 and section 11. Regarding international sanctions: Attention is drawn to Article 5k in Regulation (EU) No 833/2014 as amended by Regulation (EU) 2022/576 which applies for the procurement procedure. The provision contains a prohibition against award of contracts to Russian companies and Russian controlled companies etc. (reference is made to Article 5k, section 1, for the exact delimitation of the actors covered by the prohibition). The DEA may at any time during the procurement procedure require that the Tenderers prove that they are not covered by the prohibition, for example by requiring documentation regarding the Tenderers’ and any subcontractors’ place of establishment and ownership. Annex D, Declaration regarding sanctions against Russia, may be used. Regarding prerequisites for award of the Concession Agreement: The Tenderer shall, as part of the tender, submit a notification/declaration concerning any financial contributions received from third countries, see Article 29 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2560 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 on foreign subsidies distorting the internal market. Whether a notification or a declaration must be included in the tender depends on the threshold in art. 28, para. 1, point (b), of Regulation (EU) 2022/2560. The obligation is further elaborated in the Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/1441 of 10 July 2023, particularly in art. 5. The Tenderer shall submit the notification/declaration concerning any financial contributions received from third countries by using the form FS-PP in Annex II of the Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/1441. The Tenderer is encouraged to engage in prenotification discussions with the European Commission Directorate-General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs in sufficient time prior to the notification, see for more information Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/1441, Annex II, the Introduction, part 6, on ‘Pre-notification contacts and waiver requests. Reference is furthermore made to the Procurement Specifications, section 7. Regarding prerequisites for conclusion of the Concession Agreement: According to the Investment Screening Act, statutory order no 1256 of 27 October 2023, economic actors, i) domiciled outside the EU or EFTA, or ii) who are under the control of or subject to significant influence as defined in the Act from a domiciled business or citizen from a country outside the EU or EFTA, must apply for and obtain authorization to conclude the Concession Contract, if the Tenderer’s conclusion of the Concession Agreement is subject to the Act. The Tenderer is advised to clarify whether their conclusion of the Concession Contract is subject to the authorization requirement under the Danish Investment Screening Act. For more details on the authorisation procedure including the relevant information to be provided to the Danish Business Authority, the DEA refers to the Danish Business Authority webpage or via this link: https://businessindenmark.virk.dk/topics/Economy/Investments/. Further, the Danish Business Authority can be reached by e-mail: fdi-screening@erst.dk for further guidance. Reference is furthermore made to the Procurement Specifications section 3.1 and section 11.2.
