Global offshore floating wind projects have more than doubled in the past 12 months, from 91 GW a year ago to 185 GW now
, according to a report released Tuesday by Renewable Energy UK.
During this period, the number of projects worldwide increased from 130 to 230,
the report said.
The pipeline includes projects at any stage: operational, under construction, approved, planned in the system, or in the early stages
of development.
The UK's pipeline has grown from 23GW a year ago to more than 33GW, from 29 to 51 projects, which are being developed
in the North Sea (Scottish and English waters), the Celtic Sea and the North Atlantic.
Of the 185GW of pipelines worldwide, 121MW has been fully commissioned in 9 projects in 7 countries
.
96MW are under construction, 288MW are approved or in the pre-construction stage, 31GW are planned or leased agreements have been signed and 153GW are in early development or leasing process
.
RenewableUK's report shows that 107GW (58%) of floating capacity is being developed in Europe and 33.
3GW (18%) of the global floating generation mix is in the UK, of which 29GW is in Scottish waters
.
Outside Europe, the west coast of the United States, the southeast coast of Australia and South Korea accounted for most of
the remaining capacity.
The report notes that by the end of 2030, floating wind capacity could reach 11GW in the UK, 31GW in Europe and 41GW
globally.
The report also notes that demand for floating foundations is expected to increase rapidly, with nearly 1,000 floating foundations
likely to be installed in UK waters by the end of 2030.
By 2030, 3,200 floating foundations
could be installed worldwide.
Dan McGrail, chief executive of Renewable Energy UK, said: "The growth of offshore floating wind power around the world is growing
at an alarming rate year on year.
The UK is a global leader in this innovative technology, accounting for nearly a fifth of the total pipeline, much
higher than any other country.
”
In the coming years, as we build projects offshore with greater wind speeds, floating winds will play a central role
in providing cheap, clean electricity to UK households and improving energy security.
"It also presents a significant opportunity to build a whole new industry in the UK, with a world-class supply chain, which will allow us to export our expertise and state-of-the-art technology
to the world.
