New report EPL published
The North Sea plays a key role in the transformation to meet the European offshore wind plans of 75 GW by 2030. In the Netherlands, the national government aims to develop an offshore wind portfolio of at least 11.5 GW by 2030 corresponding to the 40% of the current electricity consumption. In 2020, the strongest […]
