MPs demand quality review before offshore wind contracts
MPs Nikolai Astrup, Aleksander Stokkebø, and Kari Sofie Bjørnsen are calling on the government to present external quality assurance, a socioeconomic analysis, and an assessment of technology development potential for the floating offshore wind support programme before the state enters into contracts. The proposers contend that the Storting lacked essential information when the 35 billion kroner cost ceiling was approved, and that major state-funded investment projects typically require such documentation before decisions are made.
