Iberdrola, TotalEnergies and NorskHavvind jointly built two offshore sites in southern Norway to develop floating and bottom fixed wind power projects with a cumulative capacity of 4.5GW. The consortium stated that it will use its members' proven technologies in bottom fixed and floating offshore wind power, as well as the challenges, territories and stakeholders facing Norway.
