EDP — Energias de Portugal is the country’s largest energy group and one of Europe’s most internationalised utilities. Through its Ocean Winds JV with ENGIE, EDP is positioned in Norway’s first offshore wind tender alongside Statkraft and Aker Offshore Wind.
Ocean Winds — the 50/50 joint venture between EDP Renováveis and ENGIE’s renewables business — has been one of the active named bidders for Norway’s first offshore wind tender (covering Utsira Nord and Sørlige Nordsjø II), in partnership with Statkraft and Aker Offshore Wind. The grouping pairs Ocean Winds’ floating-wind track record with the operational know-how of Norway’s state hydropower champion and Aker’s offshore engineering heritage.
Norway’s offshore-wind opening is one of the most-watched Nordic energy events of the decade, opening up the country’s deep waters to commercial wind development for the first time. Ocean Winds’ positioning as a bidding consortium with Statkraft gives EDP a credible vector into the Nordic market just as Iberia’s own offshore-wind framework matures. The same group’s expansion into the Baltic and the North Sea reinforces EDP’s growing Nordic-facing exposure.
EDP Renováveis remains one of the world’s top-four wind operators. The Ocean Winds joint venture with ENGIE has positioned EDP for Norway’s offshore-wind auctions in partnership with Statkraft and Aker Offshore Wind, while EDP’s Iberian renewables footprint is increasingly tracked by Nordic institutional capital alongside the parallel Iberdrola — Norges Bank Investment Management alliance announced for 2,500 MW in Iberia.
