Triton

About the project

OX2 is planning an offshore wind farm off the coast of Skåne, 30 km south of Ystad in Sweden’s economic zone. The wind farm is called Triton. Once in operation, Triton will generate up to 7 THw per annum, which corresponds to almost half of Skåne’s electricity consumption.

In the autumn of 2022, it was announced that Ingka Investments will become a partner in the project. Part of the IKEA sphere, Ingka Investments has high and ambitious climate targets and invests heavily in renewable energy production. Today they own over 2 GW of renewable energy production. OX2 and Ingka are jointly developing the Triton wind farm.

The permit application for the offshore wind farm was submitted to the Swedish government during the winter of 2021/2022. The government then asked the county administrative board (CAB) of Skåne to prepare the application and on June 8, 2023, the CAB announced that they propose that the government grants Triton the permit. Permits needed for grid concession are currently being prepared and are to be submitted early 2024 in order to promptly start delivering large-scale fossil free electricity to the Swedish grid.
