Overview
- Fridays for Future and Deutsche Umwelthilfe rallied near Borkum against One‑Dyas’s offshore gas project.
- Luisa Neubauer said the project would block the energy transition by locking in new fossil infrastructure and diverting money and political focus from renewables.
- She called the drilling approval highly problematic due to ongoing court cases and extensive environmental and climate concerns.
- The gas field straddles German and Dutch seabed with a platform about 20 kilometers off Borkum.
- One‑Dyas began producing on the Dutch side in March, German drilling is scheduled to start in December, and first output there is expected in 2026; supporters cite energy security as opponents warn of marine damage and climate goal risks.
