The Norwegian government is set to unveil two sites for floating offshore wind plants later this year, a minister has confirmed.
Speaking at an industry event this month, Terje Søviknes, Norway’s minister of petroleum and energy, said the Norwegian Water Resources and Energy Directorate has already singled out four potential locations and is aiming to narrow down the selection this fall.
One or both sites might be connected to oil and gas platforms instead of exporting electricity to the grid, according to reports.
