Eneco is an international energy company dedicated to accelerating the energy transition. At Eneco, everyone is working towards the same mission: becoming climate neutral by 2035. No empty promises, just doing. We help consumers and businesses switch to sustainable energy. Not by making them feel like they have to, but by showing what is possible. That is how Eneco illuminates. By sharing knowledge. By providing insight. By making energy so understandable that the choice comes naturally. Understandable rather than complicated. Offshore Wind makes an important contribution to our ambition to further scale up its sustainable energy production.

Our offshore portfolio currently consists of 6 operational wind farms. Another wind farm (HKW Ecowende) is under construction and will be completed in 2026.
