LONDON, March 4 (Reuters) - Dutch grid company TenneT
IPO-TTH.AS and wind farm developer CrossWind have signed
agreements to enable a wind farm off the Dutch coast to be
connected to the country's power grid, they said on Thursday.
The project developed by CrossWind, a consortium of oil and
gas major Royal Dutch Shell RDSa.L and renewables company
Eneco, will have installed capacity of 759 megawatts when it is
completed in 2023.
The agreements will enable CrossWind to supply wind power
equivalent to the consumption of more than a million Dutch
households through TenneT's offshore grid.
