Eolus is applying to establish the offshore windfarm in the Baltic Sea within the Swedish Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The park plans to build max. 147 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 corresponds to half of today’s electricity consumption in Stockholm County or more than ten times Gotland’s electricity needs.
The Skidbladner Floating Wind will consist of wind turbines mounted on the floating foundations, which will be anchored to the sea bottom. The permit application concerns wind turbines with a maximum height of 360 meters.
