Blog acerca de MATLAB/Simulink y Energías Renovables — Blog about MATLAB/Simulink and Renewable Energy [Jorge Mírez]

Offshore wind has emerged as one of the most dynamic technologies in the energy system. For the first time in 2010 global capacity additions of offshore wind surpassed 1 gigawatt (GW). In 2018, a total of 4.3 GW of new offshore wind capacity was completed (see Figure). From 3 GW of offshore wind in operation in 2010, installed capacity expanded to
23 GW in 2018. Annual deployment has increased by nearly 30 % per year, higher than any other source of electricity except solar photovoltaics (PV). By mid-2019, there were over 5,500 offshore turbines connected to a grid in 17 countries. Policy support has been fundamental to this expansion, including through technology-specific capacity tenders, progress on including offshore wind in marine planning, financial support and regulatory efforts to support grid development.

The growth of the offshore wind industry has been fostered in European countries bordering the North Seas, where high quality wind resources and relatively shallow water have provided exceptionally good conditions in which to develop offshore wind technologies and bring them to market. Stable policies supported nearly 17 GW of offshore
wind capacity additions in Europe between 2010 and 2018. The United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Denmark together added 2.7 GW of capacity in 2018 alone. China has recently taken strides forward on offshore wind and now stands among the market leaders. In 2018, China added 1.6 GW of offshore wind capacity, the most of any
country. This rapid growth has been driven by the government’s 13th Five-Year Plan, which called for 5 GW of offshore wind capacity to be completed by 2020, and for the establishment of supply chains to support further expansion thereafter.
