Major development was the withdrawal of 10 MW offshore wind demonstration project in February 2023 due to municipal opposition, while temporary tunnel construction power was approved in June 2024
Key Substations
Municipality Stance
Negative toward offshore wind development, as evidenced by rejection of demonstration facility that led to project withdrawal
