Department for Energy Security and Net Zero written question – answered at on 28 November 2023.
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what progress her Department has made on reaching 50GW capacity of offshore wind by 2030.
The UK is a global leader in offshore wind and attracts investment from all over the globe. Our ambition of 50GW by 2030 is world leading as we have a strong pipeline of projects and the world’s five largest operational offshore windfarms.
We are stimulating investment and creating new jobs and making £960 million available for a Green Industries Growth Accelerator to support green manufacturing alongside £160m to kick start investment in port infrastructure. Industry has supported our action with Renewable UK’s CEO welcoming this Government’s strong commitment to the sector.
