Combined, solar and wind grew by 15.96% and accounted for more than one-eighth (13.05%) of U.S. electrical generation (wind - 9.12%, solar - 3.93%).

The United States aims to instal 30 GW of offshore wind by 2030. At the regional level, New York and New Jersey have set the target of installing 16 GW of offshore wind by 2035.

11 GW of new wind capacity was added in the 27 EU countries in 2021

Sweden targets 120 TWh of power generation at sea, which would cover most of its current electricity consumption (around 140 TWh/year).

The lodged offers represent over AUD 100 billion (USD 71.7bn/EUR 63bn) of potential investment in 24 solar parks, 13 onshore and seven offshore wind farms, 35 large-scale batteries and eight pumped hydro plants. It is estimated that these projects have the potential to deliver more than 100,000 GWh of total electricity per year.

RES has acquired Blueshore, an asset management business with 1.6 GW of renewable projects under management in Australia.

Utsira Nord has an offshore wind potential of 1.5 GW (the other area, Sørlige Nordsjø II, has a potential of 3 GW).

Called Snowflake – but also known by the less eloquent ‘Arctic Hydrogen Energy Applications and Demonstrations’ project – the facility will be a year-round scientific hub for the development, testing and maturation of carbon-free technologies robust enough to operate in extreme Arctic conditions.

China, the world's biggest greenhouse gases emitter and coal consumer, is expected to add 180 gigawatts (GW) of new power generation capacity from non-fossil fuel sources during 2022, driving total non-fossil fuel capacity to 1,300 GW, according to a report issued by the China Electricity Council (CEC) late on Thursday.
