Chinese Floating Offshore Wind Turbine

In the last year alone, China added 16.9 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity, cementing its position as the world’s biggest market for wind farms at sea. The second-biggest market, the U.K., generates about 10 gigawatts of wind  total.

The Rapidly Growing Offshore Wind Industry’s Impact on Worker Safety

SNIPPET:

15 projects reached the permitting phase, and 8 states set offshore wind energy production goals totaling 39,298 by 2040. On a global scale, the offshore wind energy pipeline more than tripled, reaching 25,529 megawatts. To put these numbers into perspective, 1 megawatt of capacity will produce about as much energy as is used by about 400 to 900 modern homes annually. It is also important to note that offshore wind pipelines are not likely to generate a completely consistent amount of power throughout the year, as wind speeds will vary, so the megawatts listed above are estimated averages.

30 Gigawatts of Offshore Wind Power by 2030

American Clean Power has touted offshore wind as “America’s next major energy source,” and for good reason. In December 2021, President Biden signed an executive order for the Federal Government to “achieve a carbon pollution-free electricity sector by 2035 and net-zero emissions economy-wide by no later than 2050.” This includes generating 30 gigawatts of offshore wind power by 2030. Offshore wind power sources are expected to be built and expand into the Gulf of Mexico, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and even the Great Lakes.
