DELAYED +2yr (Apr 2026): Earlier 2 GW programme communications implied Dutch links, incl. Doordewind 2 to Eemshaven, could be operational around 2031–33. The April and Dec 2024 Development Framework updates move Doordewind Site II into a later phase beyond the current 21 GW‑by‑2032 roadmap, with only preparatory work parallel to Site I. Given surveys and UXO for Doordewind 1&2 mainly in 2025–26, a 1 Jan 2033 COD looks optimistic, so I move full‑power COD to c.2035 (year‑level), treating 2033 as the original goal. --- Dutch TSO TenneT plans to complete the full Doordewind offshore grid connection infrastructure, including the 2 GW Doordewind 2 HVDC export system to Eemshaven, by 2033. Once finished, the two 2 GW connections from the 4 GW Doordewind wind area will be able to deliver their combined capacity to the national grid, marking full operational service of the transmission assets.
