RWE is building the Thor offshore wind farm in the Danish North Sea, on the west coast of Jutland, approximately 22 kilometres from Thorsminde in the municipality of Holstebro. With a planned capacity of more than 1,000 MW, Thor is Denmark’s largest offshore wind farm to date.

Once fully operational, which is planned no later than the end of 2027, the wind farm will be capable of producing enough green electricity to supply the equivalent of more than a million households, or one in three Danish households.

Thor is a joint offshore wind project of RWE (51%) and Norges Bank Investment Management (49%). RWE is in charge of construction and operations throughout the lifecycle of the Thor offshore wind farm.

Denmark as a strategic growth market

We are a global energy company with 125 years of history, proud German roots, and a renewable energy portfolio that spans offshore and onshore wind, hydrogen, solar, hydro power, storage, and bioenergy. We view Denmark as a major strategic growth market due to its strong potential for renewable energy development.

Our journey in Denmark began with the Rødsand Offshore Wind Farm, and today we are making history with the establishment of Denmark’s largest offshore wind farm, Thor. We aim to harness Denmark’s Power-to-X potential – especially in green hydrogen – recognising the country as a key player in the green transformation of Germany and Northern Europe.

We are an active player in the Danish market, and with our two offshore wind projects, our current portfolio provides a strong foundation for future growth.

In doing so, we contribute to Denmark's path towards a green transition, which includes both a renewable energy supply for Danish households and for the launch of a new export adventure of green fuels.
