Upon completion Thor offshore wind farm will be Denmark’s largest offshore wind farm and is located 22 kilometres off the coast of Thorsminde on the west coast of Jutland.

The offshore wind farm will consist of 72 Siemens Gamesa SG 14-236 DD offshore wind turbines. With a total capacity of more than 1 GW once fully operational in 2027, Thor will significantly increase Denmark’s share of green electricity and produce green electricity to more than 1 million Danish households.

Project status: under construction

To connect the wind farm to the Danish grid, we will build two new substations – one at sea and one on land.

The substation at sea is the nerve centre of the wind farm: the electricity produced by the individual wind turbines is collected here and transformed to transmission-level voltage.

The green electricity will be transported through export cables to the new-build onshore substation Volder Søndervang, which is located close to the coastline and the adjacent grid connection point of the Danish grid operator, Energinet.
