The development of offshore grid infrastructure has been relatively uncoordinated until recently. This needs to change.

Meshed grids the next frontier in leveraging the potential of offshore wind

Europe has placed offshore wind at the heart of its energy transition. Governments across Europe have between them pledged 150 GW by 2030. And by 2050 Europe’s seas will have as much as 450 GW of wind farms. But delivering this requires major investment in grid infrastructure too.

Hitachi Energy and WindEurope have published a new report that shows that Europe needs to invest hugely in offshore grids to facilitate the big amounts of new wind farms and the development of a so-called meshed grid will be essential for Europe’s offshore wind development. These are clusters of offshore wind farms with fewer cables connected to the shore that can route power to two or more national grids. The development of offshore grid infrastructure has been relatively... ... More: Official Press Release WindEurope
