Poland can become a major player in Offshore Wind, says PGE

September 6, 2022 by PGE

PGE Polska Grupa Energetyczna’s goal is to have at least 6.5 GW of offshore wind capacity in the Baltic Sea by 2040. The first projects will come online within the next few years. The offshore projects are one of PGE’s key steps towards climate neutrality, and PGE hopes to become a leader in offshore wind in Poland. Here, Wojciech DÄ…browski, PGE’s President of the Management Board, answers questions to explain their strategy, and how it fits into … [Read more...]

New U.S. Offshore Wind target: from standing start to 30GW by 2030

May 6, 2021 by Stephen Naimoli and Nikos Tsafos

In March, the Biden administration announced a bold target to deploy 30GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030. Until now, offshore wind’s rise has been driven almost exclusively by Europe and China. The U.S. accounts for just 0.1% of the world’s installed capacity (versus 17% for onshore wind). Why the hold up, given the U.S. could require up to 400GW of offshore wind by 2050? As Stephen Naimoli and Nikos Tsafos at CSIS explain, offshore costs … [Read more...]

The Clean Hydrogen revolution: how, by whom, when?

May 22, 2019 by Noé van Hulst

Hydrogen rivals oil and gas for storage and hard-to-decarbonise sectors (industry, heavy and long distance transport). But it isn’t all carbon free. “Grey” hydrogen – the cheapest at €1.50/kilo - is made from gas. “Blue” hydrogen depends on the fortunes of carbon capture technology. “Green” hydrogen is CO2 free, but needs further cost reductions in the green electricity used in the electrolysis process. NoĂ© van Hulst, at the Netherland’s Ministry … [Read more...]
