A new year, new decade, and 'near limitless' potential

摘要

In 2019, the International Energy Agency described offshore wind's potential as 'near limitless.' The World Bank said it can transform global energy plans, contribute to sustainable development goals and help meet commitments made under the Paris Agreement. Politicians around the world swung firmly behind offshore wind and more will do so in 2020. Many vowed to boost existing targets for offshore wind. In the UK, returning Prime Minister Boris Johnson promised 40 GW of offshore wind by 2030.
