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.

This would require growth rates in the range of 43 to 90 GW per year for solar and 70 to 145 GW per year for wind by the end of the decade, which would mean more than quadrupling the current annual deployment rates for each technology.

While solar PV and wind power are grabbing headlines, another clean energy revolution is silently taking place. Anaerobic digestion is a biological process happening naturally that breaks down organic matter in an airless environment, resulting in the generation of methane and carbon dioxide (among other things, see below).

There’s so much we could do with that taxpayer money to protect our ocean and communities and fight climate change: Double existing funding to help build enough offshore wind to power 10 million homes: $5 billion. Offshore wind power is a key ocean-based climate solution that we need to invest in. What You Can Do to Help.

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.
