The 2023 Global Offshore Wind Report marks a new frontier in the global growth of offshore wind. Our analysis shows that over 380 GW of offshore wind capacity, across 32 markets, is predicted to be added in the next ten years.
24 sie 2023 · Offshore wind energy is a win–win! Check out some impressive offshore wind farms around the world and how they may reflect the future of U.S. offshore wind energy.
The first two commercial-scale offshore wind plants in the United States, Vineyard Wind 1 (800 MW) and South Fork Wind (132 MW), are scheduled to deliver power to the grid in 2023, and the 1,100-MW Ocean Wind 1 project will start construction.
wind turbine blades, nacelles, towers, foundations, and purpose-built offshore wind vessels. Many U.S. offshore wind energy projects are facing economic headwinds from cost increases.
In 2023, 25 new offshore wind farms with a total capacity of 9.8 gigawatts (GW) were taken into operation, increasing the global off-shore wind capacity to a total of 67.4 GW. China remains the front runner with a total of 31.5 GW up and running. But we also see positive developments in Europe: France more
28 lut 2024 · Annual build-out of offshore wind should ramp-up significantly towards the end of the decade. We anticipate installations over 2024-2030 to take the EU to 393 GW by the 2030. The EU2030 target is 425 GW. We also see Europe's installed wind power capacity exceeding 500 GW over the same timeframe.
12 lip 2024 · The global commissioned capacity of offshore wind increased from 3 GW in 2010 to approximately 66 GW in 2023—roughly enough capacity to meet Spain’s electricity demand, assuming a capacity factor of 45 percent. 4 “Global offshore wind farm database and intelligence,” accessed September 2023.
