Commercial Operations Full Power

DELAYED +4yr (May 2026): Official sources no longer support a specific commissioning year for Doordewind II: RVO Letter to Parliament (May 2024) states Doordewind Wind Farm Site II is carried forward to the follow-up phase of the Offshore Wind Energy Roadmap for 2032–2040 ‘yet to be determined’; Noordzeeloket/Wind op zee pages also state Site II shifts to the follow-up phase (2033–2040). With no tender/permit or developer assigned yet, the prior 2036 COD projection is insufficiently evidenced; moving to end of the stated follow-up window (2040). DELAYED +5yr (May 2026): The 2031 commissioning projection traces to older tender-roadmap reporting (e.g., Doordewind I/II auction 2027; commissioning 2031). However, the Dutch government’s Wind op zee page for windenergiegebied Doordewind says the zone is “In gebruik vanaf 2032” and explicitly states “Kavel II schuift door naar de vervolgfase … 2033-2040,” implying Doordewind II will not be operational in 2031 and is instead a follow-up-phase (post-2033) project. To reflect this shift, move the Doordewind II full commercial operations projection to the mid-follow-up window (end-2036, year precision). --- According to an Offshorewind.biz report, the 2 GW Doordewind II wind farm, along with the 2 GW Doordewind I project, is planned to be put up for auction in 2027, with commissioning expected in 2031, implying Doordewind II is targeted to reach full commercial operation in 2031.
