MOWI ASA

Overview

Mowi is pursuing a focused electrification strategy across its Norwegian fish farming operations, with active concession cases in Trøndelag and Vestland and grid queue reservations totalling 16.8 MW of consumption capacity. The projects center on shore power (landstrøm) installations and 22 kV submarine cable networks connecting remote aquaculture sites to the onshore grid. This pattern reflects a sector-wide drive to replace diesel and fossil fuel use at sea-based facilities with grid electricity, supporting both operational efficiency and emissions reduction goals.

Active Regions

Strategic Focus

Mowi's energy activity is entirely consumption-driven, focused on electrifying existing and expanding aquaculture facilities across Norway. The company is investing in shore power infrastructure — submarine cables, substations, and grid connections — to reduce reliance on fossil fuels at its sea-based salmon farming sites. Activity spans multiple grid areas (NO2, NO3, NO4), reflecting the geographic spread of Mowi's Norwegian farming operations rather than a regionally concentrated strategy.

Recent Activity

August 2026 saw two notable developments: NVE granted concession for a cable route modification at Mowi's Frøya aquaculture site on 27 August, and Mowi filed a new shore power application for its Oksebåsen facility on 5 August following the original submission in July 2026. These actions indicate active and ongoing infrastructure investment in grid-connected aquaculture operations.
