Modifications in the Re-tender

We have made various corrections to the tender conditions. However, the specification and contract are identical to the first version. The following corrections have been made to the tender conditions:

- We have removed the part of the pricing criterion that related to co-financing. The only sub-criterion is now "Budget". We still welcome information on co-financing, but it does not weigh in the evaluation.

- We have also removed the confusing setup in the sub-contracts. We have been informed by Mercell support that multiple bids can be uploaded, as there is provision for side bids. We encourage you to upload bids well in advance, so that any technical challenges with uploading multiple bids can be resolved. Please contact the support of the tender platform if you encounter technical difficulties.

- We have clarified in the section on side bids that multiple bids can be submitted and participated in.

- We have clarified that CVer max must fill 2 pages per item.

Description of the tender

The projects should contribute with scientifically based empirical knowledge about how activities related to offshore wind affect the marine environment, including contributing to a clarification of:

- whether the activity's impact(s) can be considered significant, either in themselves or in combination with other pressure factors;

- whether the activity's impacts are unambiguously negative or whether they can also have positive effects;

- whether the activity's impact primarily occurs locally or whether it has a broader geographical impact;

- whether any mitigation measures for the activity's impact on the marine environment are effective.

In addition to collecting knowledge, the projects can also test mitigation measures for the activity's impact on the marine environment. By activities, we mean activities related to the construction, operation and decommissioning of offshore wind installations.

Based on the report "Offshore Wind and Nature Coexistence" from DTU Aqua, projects focusing on the impacts (see figure 2) from the construction, operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms, including the construction and operation of associated power cables, as well as the decommissioning of offshore wind farms, are prioritised.

The project is expected to be completed by no later than 30 November 2030.

A total budget of up to 15,0 mio. kr. has been allocated.

Contracts can be awarded to up to three projects.

Each project can be awarded a contract of up to 7,5 mio. kr. excl. VAT.
