What's In Store for Offshore Wind in the Next Five Years?

Concern about the links between rising global average temperatures and increasing man-made Green House Gas (GHG) concentrations has led to ambitious long-term policy action on climate change, including the Kyoto Protocol. Implementation is being driven by policy action at both regional and national levels, a prime example being Europe’s ambitious “20 percent by 2020” targets whereby E.U.-27 leaders agreed to a binding target of sourcing 20 percent of primary energy from renewable energy sources by 2020. Of the various low carbon alternatives, offshore wind is well placed due to a combination of factors including large untapped resources, relatively high energy yields and the potential to develop projects on a large “utility” scale. In particular, the potential to develop very large offshore sites, often beyond visual distance from shore, is becoming increasingly attractive...
