With offshore wind taking off in the US Barry Parker reviews a report by classification society ABS evaluating the US offshore wind industry’s readiness to deliver the 40 gigawatts of capacity the International Energy Agency estimates will be installed by 2040.
The comprehensive document is titled – Positioning for US expansion: US ports and innovation.

It s no longer news that the U.S. is set to become the next big offshore wind market, with an IEA 2019 report forecasting 40 GW of installed offshore wind capacity in the country by 2040, which will require a $100 billion investment.
