Project portfolio

Njordr is currently developing a substantial portfolio of onshore projects across the Nordics. In addition, we are in early stages of developing solar projects across the Nordic countries, where our most advanced project is Lålby in Finland.

The maturity of project portfolio ranges from screening, through feasibility, Consultation / Permit Application and projects that already are in the permitting process at relevant authorities in the Nordic countries.

Our prioritisation of projects strictly follows a selected number of criteria where sustainability, regional energy demand, local acceptance, and the overall probability of getting the projects all the way to successful operation are among the most important.
