Abstract

Currently there is no existing framework for multi-lateral hybrid offshore infrastructure projects on the North Sea. The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark have their national development framework for developing offshore wind, but no framework exists to combine it with interconnection to other countries. This thesis provides insights in what the rules of the game are for playing the multi-lateral hybrid offshore infrastructure projects game. The case study for this thesis was the North Sea Wind Power Hub. A program of the Dutch, German and Danish TSO and Gasunie to develop large scale wind farms on the North Sea with cross-border interconnection. The main actors are the national governments of the Netherlands, Germany and Denmark, its TSOs and the European Commission. Theories used in this research were multi-level governance (MLG) and game theory (GT). The results are derived from desk-research and expert interviews and, subsequently, analyzed through the lens of MLG and GT to establish the power balances between the actors. The priorities between the actors are not aligned resulting in a complex game.
