Tuuletraal Offshore Wind Farm

Estonia
Concept/Early Planning
1050 MW Capacity
23 Sep 2020: Developers have submitted a draft Environmental Impact Assessment Programme for approval. The draft EIA sets out a drastically different wind farm description to previous plans, foreseeing up to 75 x 14-18 MW fixed turbines, with variants of 1-3 x 350 MW layout. 350 MW is a minimum imposed by the government, with additional phases potentially incorporating hydrogen technology. Due to potential radar influence, developers have proposed payment of 1-2 million euros every year to defence agencies in order to support joint air monitoring system BALTNET. The developer was considering interconnection with Latvia (which would have required a transboundary EIA) but has abandoned this plan due to a.) Gulf of Riga fisheries do not want additional impact on fish migration b.) developers suggestions were not incorporated in the Marine Spatial Plan c.) the Estonian and Latvian Ministries of Economy are currently approving a protocol of common intentions and would compete with private companies in the construction of a wind farm and connection cables in the Gulf of Riga. Included in the EIA Programme is the intention for a feasibility study on hydrogen production, from the offshore substation and / or onshore substation and an electricity and / or hydrogen transmission system up to the onshore connection point (s). The study will investigate the pipeline to the transmission network, conversion to ammonia-marine fuel, rail transport with the restoration of the former Virtsu railway, land transport and re-conversion to electricity. Revised wind farm plans still incorporate synergy with mussel farming to increase revenue and mitigate environmental impacts, with expectations of achieving 50,000 tons/year.
