Companies plan to test and use innovative wind energy technology on an innovation site designed for this purpose off Borssele in the North Sea. They had up to yesterday to submit their applications for a permit to the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy.

The applications submitted will be assessed over the next few months. The party with the best plan will be declared the winner. From 2020 onwards, new technology for producing electricity in a sustainable way will be tested and developed further on the North Sea innovation site. At the same time, the site will supply thousands of households with sustainably produced electricity.
