Aflandshage is a developer-led offshore wind project sited in the southern Øresund (about 10 km from Amager’s southern tip) intended to serve the Greater Copenhagen region with several hundred megawatts of renewable capacity. Promoted by HOFOR (Greater Copenhagen Utility), the scheme was advanced...
In the Environmental Impact Assessment material for Aflandshage Offshore Wind Farm, HOFOR includes an indicative schedule showing that offshore construction activities, including foundations, export cables and inter-array cables, are planned to commence within the 2023 offshore construction window. These works relate to establishing the offshore infrastructure and export connection from the Aflandshage wind farm area in Øresund to Energinet’s existing 132 kV substation at Avedøreværket, via a dedicated cable corridor and grid connection cables.
The 2021 EIA documentation for Aflandshage Offshore Wind Farm presents an indicative offshore construction schedule that includes a specific activity line for "Trenching and installation of export cables" within the 2023–2026 construction period. This indicates that installation of the offshore export cables in the designated cable corridor, forming the grid connection between the wind farm and Energinet’s 132 kV Avedøreværket substation, is planned to start during 2023 as part of the overall offshore works.

In November 2021, the EIA material for the Aflandshage Offshore Wind Farm, including the export cable corridor and grid connection to Energinet’s 132 kV substation at Avedøreværket, was sent to public consultation for a period running from November 2021 to January 2022, inviting comments from stakeholders and authorities on the project’s environmental impacts.
On 21 December 2020, HOFOR submitted Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) reports for the Aflandshage and Nordre Flint offshore wind farms to the Danish authorities, with the Aflandshage documentation assessing the wind turbines, offshore and onshore high‑voltage cables in the export corridor, and their connection to Energinet’s existing 132 kV substation at Avedøreværket.
On 10 October 2019, a transboundary notification document titled "Transboundary impacts due to Aflandshage Offshore Wind Farm" was issued under the Espoo Convention, outlining potential cross‑border environmental effects of the Aflandshage wind farm and its export cables and presenting maps of the turbine areas and the export cable corridor to land, thereby initiating international consultation with neighbouring states.
On 6 March 2019, HOFOR received a licence for pre‑investigations for the Aflandshage and Nordre Flint offshore wind farms, covering surveys and studies within both the turbine areas and the associated offshore cable corridors that will bring power ashore to Avedøre Power Station, thereby authorising early site investigations needed for the planned export cable connection to Avedøreværket.
