It is the company Skyborn renewables that wants to build up to 120 wind turbines, 350 meters high, out to sea about three miles south of Kalix.
The investment is expected to cost 60-80 billion kroner and they want to start construction in 2030, but there are many actors who can stop the project, which you can hear more about in the clip above.
Yes from the municipality
The idea from the beginning was that the wind farm would be located in both Kalix and Haparanda, but the latter municipality said no.
In another neighboring municipality, Övertorneå, the political board has said no to all future wind power plans if the municipality does not receive direct financial compensation.
The Kalix politicians, on the other hand, have chosen to give away their municipal veto, with the government instead making the decision.
You will find out why they say yes in the clip below.
