Heading Offshore – The recent boom in the expansion of offshore wind energy
Global offshore wind activity is on the rise. Since 2021 the number of related projects in the pipeline has never been higher. Experts are already speaking of a boom that is being driven primarily by China, the UK, and the USA. But is this development just a flash in the pan or is it here to stay?
(W)Independent – New upswing for wind energy in Germany?
Germany is one of the world's top wind energy players. Nevertheless, the construction of new wind turbines has been stagnating for some time and the global positioning of the German wind industry is faltering. The so-called "Easter Package" is intended to change that.
It’s electrifying! – How wind can lead the EU to net zero
According to a new report from ETIPWind and WindEurope, electricity-driven technology is crucial to the EU reaching net zero. But they also report that being able to provide the electricity at the volume demanded – especially once we move carbon-heavy processes to electric alternatives – can only be met by wind power.
Together towards the energy transition – Cross-border alliances to boost offshore wind
Europewide, there is a growing desire for an energy transition, as many nations increase their onshore and offshore wind energy resources. But why are countries making decisions independently when the EU offers incentives for cross-border collaboration? This article reveals three projects, which show how international teamwork can look.
