Offshore wind set for 100GW by 2030 as costs fall: Irena

Next-generation supersize turbines and floating technologies will lead offshore wind power to reach a worldwide installed capacity of 100GW as early as 2030 as its levelised cost of energy (LCoE) plummets toward $75/MWh, according to new analysis from the International Renewable Energy Agency (Irena).

Floating technologies will play a key part in offshore's growth, says Irena
