OSLO, March 20 (Reuters) - The Ventyr group, owned by Japanese-backed Parkwind and Sweden's Ingka, won Norway's first offshore wind farm tender to build 1.5 gigawatts (GW) of capacity in the North Sea, the country's energy ministry said on Wednesday.
The government hopes the auction for the right to build bottom-fixed wind turbines in the North Sea will be the starting point for massive offshore power developments in the years leading up to 2040. (Reporting by Nora Buli, editing by Terje Solsvik)
