The United States Government Announced Its Target To Expand Its Offshore Wind Energy Industry Over The Next Decade

The United States government announced its plan to install offshore wind farms by 2030, aiming to supply more than 10 million homes, thus contributing to the fight against climate change. The White House stated that the plan’s target is to produce 30 GW of wind energy in the country by the set date. The plan is part of a broader effort by President Joe Biden, aimed at eliminating U.S. greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change.

Offshore Wind Energy in The United States

President Joe Biden’s administration announced that this target will require an estimated annual investment of over US$ 12 billion. The plan is expected to be implemented in the Atlantic and Pacific, potentially creating thousands of jobs. According to the White House, the offshore wind energy plan has the potential to eliminate 78 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

The United States government is considering selecting coastal areas of New York and New Jersey. The available plots will be offered at the end of this year and the beginning of next year. Currently, the United States has only one offshore wind farm, located near Rhode Island.

The administration of Biden’s predecessor, former President Donald Trump, promised to launch offshore wind energy as a promising domestic industry but did not approve any projects.

Job Creation in The United States

The United States government stated that by 2030, the installation of offshore wind farms will directly employ 44,000 workers and create an additional 33,000 support jobs. The government promised that these will be “well-paying jobs with union representatives”.
