On 13 January 2026, after the BSH permit for the Nordlicht II offshore wind farm became irrevocable, Vattenfall confirmed the full Final Investment Decision (FID) for the entire 1.6 GW Nordlicht cluster, including the 630 MW Nordlicht II. This decision, based on secured permitting and financing arrangements, allows construction to start in 2026 with Nordlicht I followed by Nordlicht II around a year later, targeting commercial operation in 2028.
