Offshore wind is a hot topic these days for a lot of good reasons. While the benefits of the technology are clear to many, its worth considering the fuller range from time to time. Here are five reasons offshore wind is a good thing for all of us. As it happens, that same wind is really good at spinning offshore wind turbines.

PVV, FvD and JA21 are against the installation of solar and wind energy and aim to stop subsidies towards these technologies. An interesting idea posed by GL is that inhabitants living close to large solar or wind energy projects will receive shares in these projects, in order to financially gain from the energy transition.

tonnes of CO2 in 2018. Wind and solar power can provide green electricity for those facilities, while the low local temperatures can help with cooling requirements. It has huge potential for renewables, with vast areas of sparsely populated land and plenty of wind and sun. Money is not the issue, it’s the return.”.

A proposed offshore wind procurement bill in Maine would go a long way to enable the state to meet its climate and clean energy targets and become a national leader in floating offshore wind technology. NREL and DNV expect floating offshore wind costs to dip to $60 to $80/MWh by 2030 and $45 to $50/MWh by 2035.

Evidence is accumulating that climate change contributes to conditions that provide more power to storms capable of producing tornadoes. Advances in science and technology help predict tornado activity, so there is rightfully more focus ( here , here , and here ) on improving communication to residents so that they may seek shelter.

Additionally, in the 2010s, solar and wind generated electricity became cost competitive with, if not outright cheaper than coal, natural gas, and nuclear power. This trend of comparative affordability of renewables has continued as technology improves and continued wind and solar development advances to economies of scale.

Trumps Arguments Against Offshore Wind Why, you might ask, is Trump so opposed to offshore wind a technology that is not just an essential component of a low-carbon transition but a promising source of new economic growth and a way to compete with China? Wind power would do well in such a comparison with fossil fuel energy.
