Prepare for Denmark’s upcoming offshore tender

Get ready to bid on Denmark’s new offshore wind projects 

The tender for three new offshore wind farms – two in the North Sea and one near Hesselø in the Kattegat – is expected to open soon. To support potential bidders, investors, and suppliers, we have put together a focused and informative afternoon program that addresses key aspects to be aware of in the upcoming tender:

Establishing a financial model and business case

A dynamic, easy-to-use and robust financial model can be an essential tool in establishing the business case, conducting sensitivity analyses, discussions with lenders and ultimately determining a competitive CfD (Contracts for Difference) price.

In this session, we will cover central components in a typical financial model for business case development, also in relation to key assumptions and specific considerations related to the proposed CfD scheme and potential overplanting (e.g., PtX). In addition, we will provide insights regarding selected best practices related to establishment and review of financial models and business cases.

Tax and corporate structure

Investing in the upcoming offshore wind tender involves important decisions regarding tax implications and corporate setup. We will share insights on how structuring of investments can be done and share our experiences on the considerations that may come into play depending on who is investing – whether as a sole investor, in a partnership, through Danish entities or from abroad – and how tax impacts the business case.

The session will cover relevant tax initiatives, legislative changes, and other factors that may influence the investment strategy.

Supply Chain resilience

How can developers, suppliers, and subcontractors rethink their global supply chains to make them more resilient, flexible, and locally anchored?

In this session, we will explore how the industry’s overall resilience and competitiveness can be strengthened in a time marked by geopolitical tensions, limited supply availability, and diverse local production requirements through strategic repositioning and collaboration across the value chain.

Preparedness, data and IT security for offshore wind farms 

In today’s evolving geopolitical tensions, offshore wind farms have become digital hubs surrounded by critical infrastructure. This increases the need for robust cybersecurity and continuous monitoring. With the introduction of NIS2 and CER regulations, the requirements for both technical protection and organizational preparedness are becoming more stringent. 

Systems and data – such as SCADA, infrastructure, and controllers – must be safeguarded against attacks, while emergency responses must be swift and effective. This session explores how the entire value chain – from intelligent cyber security to supplier management – plays a vital role in ensuring a secure and resilient energy infrastructure. 

Who is the target audience?

CFOs, Finance Directors, Heads of Finance, project developers, and similar roles within offshore wind industry – including developers of offshore wind farms, turbine or turbine component suppliers, investors, and companies servicing the sector.

In case of overbooking, we reserve the right to allocate seats according to the target group.
