Overview

While Andøy received a new transmission line concession in 2024, the municipality's energy development is overshadowed by the failure of the 160 MW Andmyran wind farm project, which received approval in 2006 but never commenced construction and officially lapsed in 2022. Current activity focuses on grid infrastructure improvements rather than new generation capacity.

Recent Activity

Noranett Andøy received concession approval for a 66 kV transmission line between Risøyhamn and Andenes in May 2024, indicating continued grid infrastructure development.

Outlook

Limited near-term prospects for major generation projects given the failure of the Andmyran wind farm, but ongoing grid infrastructure improvements by Noranett Andøy suggest preparation for future development opportunities.
