Summary
Since the commissioning of the first German wind farm at sea in 2010, the total capacity of the plants has increased to 10.2 GW, as announced by the Federal Maritime and Hydrographic Office (BSH) in April. In the five-year comparison, the cost increase is 30 to 40 percent, over 15 years at more than 50 percent. A lower expansion target would be a sensible correction after 20 years, no braking. The legal goal of the government is to expand the capacity for electricity generation from wind energy at sea to at least 30 gigawatts (GW) by 2030.
Furthermore, The energy transition is a long-term project, and what was right 20 years ago does not necessarily have to be right now. However, rich people sell their policies “sometimes communicatively bad”. 55 of the 64 turbines have already been installed and about 30 of them are in operation.The course of Federal Minister of Economic Affairs Katherina Reiche (CDU) defends Stamatelopoulos in principle. The Federal Government is concerned with things that have had to be regulated for a long time. That’s why he suggests: Let’s build 55 gigawatts first, and then we’ll see. So far, EnBW operates four parks with Baltic I, Baltic II, High Seas and Albatros.
In addition, In late summer, He Dreiht will also be added with around 960 megawatts.
