Norway to Ramp Up Offshore Wind in Drive to go Green

Norway unveiled plans on Wednesday for a major expansion in offshore wind energy by 2040, aiming to turn a country that has built its wealth on oil and gas into an exporter of renewable electricity.

The centre-left government, which has come under criticism from environmentalists for continuing to support the oil and gas industry, has set a goal of developing 30 gigawatts (GW) of offshore wind capacity by 2040. “This will almost double our electricity production,” Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere said at a press conference.

Saying that the world still needs gaseous oil during the transition to a cleaner energy future, Norway believes that the development of offshore wind will allow the current energy industry to build on its know-how.
