US Offshore Wind Pipeline Blows Past 51 GW, Report Says

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on offshoreWIND.biz.

This is the sub-heading.

The American Clean Power Association (ACP) has released a report on the US offshore wind market, outlining a rapidly growing pipeline of projects across 32 leases totaling 51,377 MW of expected capacity which is enough to power the equivalent of more than 20 million homes.

The American wind market seems to be powering ahead.

If the pattern of offshore oil and gas from the last century, repeats itself, there’s going to be a lot of money made and jobs created.

The report talks of the following.

• 83,000 jobs by 2030.
• $25 billion of economic output.
• Thirty new ships built in domestic shipyards.

Are we geared up for proportionate numbers in the UK?
