(f) Delays and effects of delays
Bidders are bound by certain project realisation milestones (see section 2.4 below).
In case of delays with the realisation of the
project against the mandatory realisation
timeline, the bidder is subject to penalties
payable to the competent TSO. Furthermore, in case of certain material delays, the
Federal Network Agency is obliged to revoke
the award of the bid.
(g) Security
Bidders are required to provide a security to
the Federal Network Agency which secures
potential claims of the TSO for penalties
(see above). A security for a partial amount
needs to be provided as a precondition for
the participation in the tender; the remaining amount needs to be provided in case of
a successful bid.
The required security amounts to EUR 100
per kilowatt of installed capacity in case of
non-pre-investigates sites and EUR 200 per
kilowatt of installed capacity in case of preinvestigates sites (cf. sec. 18 and 52 Offshore
Wind Energy Act).
(h) Bid volume
The bid volume (installed capacity) must
correspond to volume tendered for the
specific site.
