The Eesti 200 party has delayed the announcement of tenders for onshore wind farms in Estonia, arguing that the Ministry of Climate must first prepare a plan to facilitate large energy investments. Although Energy Minister Andres Sutt has indicated that this plan will not be ready in the near future, Eesti 200 believes that the government could still approve wind farm tenders shortly. Under the coalition agreement between the Reform Party and Eesti 200, the Ministry of Climate was scheduled to announce tenders by September, aiming to establish onshore wind farms capable of generating up to two terawatt-hours annually.

Despite the expectations laid out in the coalition agreement, no tenders have been announced as of now. Kristina Kallas, the leader of Eesti 200, emphasized in October that the government should prioritize developing a framework that encourages various large-scale investments, including in energy. Such investments could include hydro storage facilities, nuclear power plants, offshore wind farms, or significant industrial projects. This shift in focus reflects broader concerns about how to ensure Estonia can support ambitious energy projects effectively.

The implications of these delays could be significant for Estonia's energy transition goals and economic plans. Without a clear support scheme or commitment to large-scale projects, Estonia may struggle to attract necessary investments that are critical to achieving its climate objectives and ensuring energy security. The ongoing negotiations and political dynamics will be crucial in determining how effectively Estonia can advance its renewable energy infrastructure in the coming years.
