The Ingerslev Å solar park is expected to produce 68GWh annually.
Spanning 68 hectares, the solar park is equipped with over 100,000 solar panels and includes six transformer stations to support power distribution. The site is expected to generate approximately 68 gigawatt hours (GWh) of electricity annually, contributing to Denmark’s renewable energy supply.
Equinor’s senior vice president for renewables onshore and markets, Anders Bade, commented on the milestone: “This is another step in our ambition to establish a profitable onshore renewables business in select markets across Europe and the Americas. Currently, we have around 1.2GW of onshore capacity in production and under construction.”
The electricity generated by the Ingerslev Å plant will be sold under merchant terms in the DK1 power market, which covers western Denmark. Danske Commodities, an international technology-based energy trading company, will manage the power sales from the facility.
Bade also highlighted the strategic value of Equinor’s investment approach: “Our ownership of local companies provides a strong foundation for value creation by leveraging their on-the-ground expertise and maximising synergies with our trading house, Danske Commodities.”
With this project now operational, all four of Equinor’s subsidiaries involved in onshore renewables and battery storage have active assets in place. This progress reflects Equinor’s broader commitment to expanding its renewable energy footprint through both solar and wind developments.
In a related development, Equinor, in collaboration with Gwynt Glas, has received seabed leases from the UK Crown Estate for the construction of two floating wind farms in the Celtic Sea. Each project is expected to have a generation capacity of 1,500MW, further strengthening Equinor’s renewable energy portfolio in Europe.
These initiatives form part of Equinor’s long-term strategy to grow its presence in renewable energy sectors across multiple regions while working with local partners to enhance efficiency and market integration.
