Denmark’s energy agency stated that the North Sea site would "give the Danes the most green energy for the money". Denmark 's energy agency has selected a North Sea site 20 km off the North Schleswig coast , for the location of what will become the world 's biggest wind farm . The 800 MW facility , named Thor , is scheduled to be connected to the grid between 2024 and 2020 , and is one of three to be tendered before 2023 . Two other 800 MW wind farms are set to be developed by 2030 . Energy minister Lars Christian Lilleholt said the Thor site was key to " turning the North Sea into a Silicon Valley for offshore wind " .
