        Skyborn Sweden

        MARKETS

        Skyborn Renewables Sweden AB is a wholly owned company of Skyborn Renewables, a pioneer and leading offshore wind power developer and operator with more than 20 years’ experience and a track record of more than 7 GW built, approved or under procurement around the globe to date.

        Local Market Page

        Skyborn Sweden was established in 2002 with the development of the Krieger’s Flak offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea, located on the Swedish-Danish-German border. The project was later divested to Vattenfall Wind.

        Since then, Skyborn Sweden has stayed committed and accumulated over 20 years of Swedish offshore wind power development expertise and experience, resulting in today's strong portfolio with favourable located projects. The projects are developed in close cooperation with national authorities, political decision makers, regional businesses and local stakeholders. We recognise collaboration and local commitment to be key as we strive to develop highly profitable and socially sustainable projects.

        Sweden has excellent wind conditions, a coast almost 2,400 km long, shallow depths and mild oceanographic conditions. The competitive technical prerequisites, together with the demand from rapid and radical electrification of industries, such as steel and iron, batteries and SAF, and which are expected to double the current electricity need from 140 TWh to +300 TWh by 2040, provides excellent conditions for large-scale offshore wind projects.

        Navigating the Swedish market, our business is characterised by commitment, progress, innovation and consistency – valuing our partnerships and always seeking new opportunities.

        Partnering

        Skyborn Sweden is actively seeking opportunities to partner, acquire or finance other promising offshore wind projects with various industry players, ranging from developers, energy distribution companies and/or transmission companies, and various other players. Skyborn’s project pipeline assures access to turbines from the best manufacturers. Together with renowned financial institutions, we have established solid financing concepts with a steady stream of capital.

          Projects

          With a project pipeline of +10 GW in various stages of development, Skyborn Sweden aims to contribute to the transition of heavy industries and the transport sector to reach Sweden’s goal of becoming the world’s first fossil-free welfare state and reaching net-zero emissions by 2045.
