Germany: less than 8 years to install around 22 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity

Wind Industry Profile of

2022 Kaskasi (342 MW) in operation - Arcadis Ost 1 (247 MW) under construction / Expansion targets for offshore wind energy increase worldwide and across Europe / Less than eight years to install around 22 gigawatts of offshore wind capacity in Germany / Urgent need to build capacity for the German and European energy transition (supply industry, ports, shipbuilding, skilled workers) / Need for adjustment in WindSeeG (offshore wind law)

Today, the expansion figures for offshore wind energy 2022 were presented by the German offshore wind industry. According to the figures, 38 offshore wind turbines with a capacity of 342 MW were connected to the grid for the first time in the Kaskasi project last year. This means that a total of 1,539 offshore wind turbines with a total capacity... ... More: Official Press Release Stiftung OFFSHORE-WINDENERGIE, u.a.
