EDF Renewables raises sails with DWO for maiden Norwegian offshore wind tender

French clean-energy developer EDF Renewables has formed a joint venture (JV) with Norwegian start-up Deep Wind Offshore (DWO) to bid to build offshore wind arrays off the latter’s home country via the upcoming auctions in the so-called Utsira Nord and Sørlige Nordsjø 2 zones.

Frédéric Belloy, EDF Renewables executive vice president for international operations, said the company was “excited about the opportunity” offshore wind could represent for the Nordic nation.
