Federal government wants to strengthen offshore wind power with other North Sea states

The German government wants to significantly boost the expansion of offshore wind energy and work more closely together with Denmark, Belgium, and the Netherlands. The four North Sea states want to quadruple their offshore capacity by 2030 – to a joint minimum of 65 gigawatts, as the heads of government agreed on Wednesday in the city of Esbjerg on the Danish coast. By 2050, the capacity is to be expanded to 150 gigawatts, a tenfold increase compared to today.
