New report: Greece has great potential in floating offshore wind
With Greece's offshore wind resources considered among the most attractive for energy production in Europe, the sector’s potential cannot be overstated. A new report concludes that offshore wind in particular offers great opportunities.??
According to Greece’s preliminary energy planning, the targets for the development of Offshore Wind Farms are set at 1,9 GW by 2030, 6,2 GW by 2035, and 17,3 GW by 2050.??
Supported through the EEA Grants, Norwegian Offshore Wind and ELETAEN have collaborated on identifying the gaps in the Greek offshore wind supply chain and finding solutions to effectively establish and strengthen this chain. The project also aimed to pinpoint bottlenecks and challenges within the offshore wind supply chain, as well as strategies to address them. One of the outcomes of this initiative is the report on the?"Status & Challenges for the Offshore Wind Supply Chain in Greece."?
