A planned 1GW offshore wind farm in the Gulf of Riga could cover half of the electricity consumption of Estonia and provide energy security for the Baltic state, local utility Enefit Green said.
Enefit Green, the renewables unit of Estonian state-controlled utility Eesti Energia, is developing the cross-border project together with Danish offshore wind champion Orsted at the sea border between Estonia and Latvia in the Gulf of Riga, which is a bay in the eastern part of the Baltic Sea.
