This year’s definitive report on the state of the Global Offshore Wind Industry and the challenges it is facing to continue its expansion.
COP26: A Wind Industry Score-sheet
17 December , 2021
COP26 saw strong progress made towards agreeing a common commitment to achieve Net Zero and create a pathway to reach a 1.5C trajectory. However, countries will need to move fast to align on Nationally Determined Contributions that are fully consistent with this goal ahead of COP27. And even more importantly, policy makers and stakeholders need to move quickly now from words to action, removing barriers to renewable energy deployment and enabling a just energy transition.
World installs 6.1GW of Offshore Wind in 2020, led by China
9 September , 2021
Offshore Wind capacity grew steadily in 2020, but governments will need to act decisively to improve policy in order to scale up installations at the pace required to help the world meet its carbon emissions targets and avoid the worst effects of global heating, according to the Global Wind Energy Council, which launches its flagship Global Offshore Wind Report 2021 today.
GWEC: USD 6.7 billion in wind power investment in Vietnam at risk without COVID-19 relief
9 September , 2021
The COVID-19 situation in Vietnam has created many hardships. This extends to supply chain bottlenecks for wind project components, workers prevented from reaching project sites for crucial inspections and activities, travel restrictions for foreign personnel, and other issues. As of August 2021, an industry survey conducted by GWEC estimates that 4,000MW of mainly onshore wind projects in Vietnam are severely challenged by these extenuating circumstances, and are now at risk of missing the November deadline for the wind Feed-in Tariff (“FiT”).
Debrief: What do all these new climate pledges mean for renewables?
10 May , 2021
The Leaders Climate Summit promised to be a big moment on the (so far virtual) road to COP26. With global leaders setting out their updated NDCs and climate strategies ahead of the Glasgow-bound conference in November, it’s fair to say that global climate ambition has never been higher. Now that the dust has settled, it seems like a good moment to take stock of what the flurry of announcements means for renewables – and whether the ambition will be matched by action.
