CHINA OFFSHORE WIND UP 3.1 GW
ENERDATA - 26 Feb 2021 - According to the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC), the offshore wind industry installed just over 6 GW of new capacity globally in 2020, nearly the same levels as the previous year. China added nearly 3.1 GW of offshore wind capacity in 2020, accounting for 50% of the total, followed by the Netherlands (1.5 GW, 25%), Belgium (703 MW, 12%), the United Kingdom (483 MW, 8%) and Germany (237 MW, 4%). Smaller capacities were installed in South Korea (60 MW), the United States (12 MW) and Portugal (17 MW of floating capacity). Total global offshore wind capacity reached 35.2 GW in 2020, with the United Kingdom accounting for 29% of the total capacity (10.2 GW), followed by China (28%, 9.9 GW), Germany (22%, 7.7 GW) and the Netherlands (7%, 2.6 GW).
