Based on a new ministerial letter reported on 19 January 2026, the Dutch government has launched a public consultation on the draft regulation for the planned 1GW IJmuiden Ver Gamma-A offshore wind tender. The article states that the consultation on the draft tender regulation "begins immediately," indicating that the consultation is opened in conjunction with the issuance of the letter. This consultation concerns the regulatory framework for the IJmuiden Ver Gamma-A site, which has been selected for the scaled-back 1GW tender in response to budget constraints and market pressures. Feedback from stakeholders and the public will inform finalisation of the tender rules ahead of the procurement round expected to open in September 2026.
