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.

11 wrz 2024 · As of end of 2023, Europe reached a cumulative offshore wind energy capacity of 34 gigawatts, accounting for roughly 45 percent of the total offshore capacity in operation worldwide.
The European Commission expects the EU to produce at least 240 gigawatts (GW) of global offshore wind power capacity by 2050, while international organisations specialising in the energy field are even more optimistic about the prospects of this energy source.
The revised TEN-E (Trans-European Networks for Energy) framework supports cooperation on cross-border projects, while the newly announced wind power package seeks to strengthen the EU wind industry and further develop offshore wind.
The Commission communication (COM/2023/668) confirms the need to accelerate investment in offshore wind, as well as ocean energies. The EU's total offshore installed capacity stands at around 16.3 GW. New offshore installations must increase to almost 12 GW per year on average to reach EU countries’ commitments.
The deployment of offshore wind energy is at the core of delivering the European Green Deal and ensuring Europe’s competitiveness and security of energy supply. The installed offshore wind capacity in the EU was 19.38 GW in 2023.
28 lut 2023 · In 2022 new wind installations in Europe amounted to 19.1 GW (16.7 GW onshore and 2.5 GW offshore). Despite the challenging economic environment and supply chain difficulties, this was a record year for installations in Europe with an increase of 4% compared with the previous year.
