Kuupäev: 2022-12-02 08:43
Dear Madam, Sir,
Please find below and attached our letter of intention regarding the
development of large offshore wind projects in Estonia.
TotalEnergies is a world leading multi-energies company with extensive
experience in developing large industrial projects in the energy sector,
including natural gas supply, renewable energies, conventional energies,
transmission networks, as well as projects related to energy storage and
hydrogen production. Active in more than 130 countries, our more than 100
000 employees are committed to energy that is ever more affordable,
cleaner, more reliable, and accessible to as many people as possible.
TotalEnergies is already developing a portfolio of offshore wind projects
with a total capacity of more than 11 GW, of which 3/4 are bottom-fixed
and 1/4 are floating. These projects are located in the United Kingdom
(Seagreen project, Outer Dowsing, Erebus, Valorous and West of Orkney),
the United States (New York Bight project, North Carolina project), France
(Eolmed project) South Korea (Bada project) and Taiwan (Yunlin project).
The Company has also been qualified to participate in competitive tenders
in the U.S., U.K. and France, and will also participate in tenders in
Norway, in Poland and in the Netherlands. As a company with a broad energy
portfolio, we focus our efforts on the fast-growing segments of offshore
wind, solar and onshore wind energy and aim to reach 35 GW of installed
capacity in 2025 and 100 GW in 2030. More than 42 GW has already been
secured and 26 GW are under Power Purchase Agreements.
TotalEnergies is pleased to put its knowledge at contribution for the
development of an offshore wind industry in Estonia. Pursuant to Section
113(1) of the Building Code in the Estonian Waters, the company intends to
apply for superficies licenses to develop and build offshore wind farms
with capacities between 1 and 2 GW. The project development sites have
been carefully selected by our technical teams supported by international
engineering companies within the boundaries of the Estonian Maritime
Spatial Plan (MSP) validated by the Estonian authorities in May 2022.
TotalEnergies expects that developing large and commercial scale offshore
wind projects may guarantee the economic viability of these future
offshore projects.
TotalEnergies would also like to be very active in supporting the Estonian
authorities in developing the Elwind project. In particular, our Company
has acquired a strong market knowledge and learnt the best development
practices along its previous project experiences, and the company is open
to share this know-how. The company looks forward to opening a
constructive dialogue with the Estonian Authorities in order to better
understand how we can best meet your energy needs within this superficies
license applications in Estonia.
Since September 2022, TotalEnergies joined the Estonian Wind Power
Association (EWPA) as a permanent member. The company will use its best
efforts to support the association and share its experience and knowledge
to contribute to the construction of the Estonian offshore wind market.2
TotalEnergies as leading LNG market player, first US LNG exporter with a
10mtpa capacity portfolio and operator of a fleet of LNG carriers and FSRU
can also propose combined solutions to answer the Estonian needs of gas
supply.
We look forward to the opportunity to enter a fruitful dialogue with the
Estonian Authorities on how we can best meet the country energy needs.
Kind regards,
TotalEnergies Renewables S.A.S.
