The US needs to start looking beyond the Biden-Harris Administration’s goal of 30GW by the end of the decade and start planning to hit 110GW by 2050, IPF 2023 has heard.
Business Network for Offshore Wind chief executive Liz Burdock told delegates in Baltimore that to be successful in the next 10 years the sector must focus on the larger target set by Washington.
“We have to think big. We need to move beyond this mindset of 30GW and start planning for an industry that we know is going to happen,” she said on Wednesday.
