The present US offshore wind power project is anticipated to stop.
Reuters reported on Tuesday that the Norwegian state -owned energy company Equino has requested the withdrawal of the development of the Empire Wind offshore wind farm, which is being developed on the Latest York coast.
US President Donald Trump has already issued an administrative order to suspend latest offshore wind power lease and permission.
As well as, in April, President Trump has been suspended for a few month due to lack of environmental evaluation. Equino said the US government ordered to stop working on the idea of the National Maritime Affairs Report, but didn’t receive specific points.
“The US $ 50 million (about 70 billion won) is being consumed to take care of the development site every week, and only $ 2.7 billion (about 3.78 trillion won) is spent on the project.”
As such, all offshore wind power projects were suspended, including 4 power plants that were expected to be added by 2027 after the Trump administration order. The US Wind Power Industry is reversing its international renewable energy trend.
Alternatively, China is leading the worldwide wind industry last 12 months by occupying six of the world’s top 10 wind turbine manufacturers.
The UK also goals to extend the budget of Clean Industries Bonus to advertise offshore wind power on the seventh from £ 200 million (about 360 billion won) to £ 5.4 billion (about 990 billion won), and achieve offshore wind capability of as much as 50 gigawat (GW) by 2030.
Meanwhile, Equino is waiting for 11 ships and 100 staff until the order is given. Nevertheless, if the federal government’s environmental review procedure doesn’t proceed quickly, it is anticipated to withdraw the project.
