Wind power seen generating up to 18% of global power by 2050 Offshore Windenergie Windparks Wirtschaft 24. Oktober 2013 Werbung (WK-intern) - Wind power could generate up to 18% of world’s electricity by 2050, compared with 2.6% today, the new report Technology Roadmap: Wind Energy – 2013 Edition finds. The nearly 300 gigawatts of current wind power worldwide must increase eight- to ten-fold to achieve the roadmap’s vision, with the more than USD 78 billion in investment in 2012 progressively reaching USD 150 billion per year. The report, an update of a document first published in 2009, envisages a much larger penetration of wind power than the 12% share on global electricity generation by 2050 considered in the first roadmap.

EWEA-Report: Offshore wind is one of the fastest growing maritime sectors Offshore Windenergie Windparks 7. September 2013 Werbung Deep Water The next step for offshore wind energy Summary Offshore wind is one of the fastest growing maritime sectors. Its installed capacity was 5 GW at end 2012, and by 2020 this could be eight times higher, at 40 GW, meeting 4% of European electricity demand. By 2030, offshore wind capacity could total 150 GW, meeting 14% of the EU’s total electricity consumption. However, for this to happen, a supportive legislative framework is needed, and new offshore designs must be developed for deep water in order to tap the large wind potential of the Atlantic, Mediterranean and deep North Sea waters.
