Vattenfall and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) have been awarded a permit to build the IJmuiden Ver Beta offshore wind farm in the Netherlands.
The project will be developed by Zeevonk, a joint venture between Vattenfall and CIP's Energy Transition Fund I. Zeevonk will be responsible for developing, constructing, and operating the IJmuiden Ver Beta offshore wind farm and a large-scale electrolyser. CIP will collaborate with its exclusive offshore wind development partner, Copenhagen Offshore Partners.
The 2 GW offshore wind project will also include a 50 MWp floating offshore solar farm and a new electrolyser at the Port of Rotterdam. This electrolyser will convert the electricity generated by IJmuiden Ver into green hydrogen.
