Does South Korea need wind energy?A major enabler for the steady growth of clean energy in the country is wind energy. With a climate and topography perfectly suited for large-scale onshore wind power generation, the government is now looking towards the untapped potential of offshore wind. However, before South Korean wind energy presents meaningful results, there is work to do.
What makes South Korea's wind energy transition unique?The US government also announced a 30 GW offshore wind goal by 2030. What makes the South Korean wind energy transition unique, however, is its tremendous potential. The wind sector in the country remains “underdeveloped,” generating just 1% of the country’s electricity in 2020.
Can South Korea's wind energy sector make a difference?The wind energy sector can become the difference-maker that gives South Korea's renewable energy progress that much-needed boost. The country's vast potential for offshore wind is already starting to attract some of the leading developers in the industry. What remains to be seen is the scale of investments and the speed of the transition.
How will South Korea's offshore wind sector grow?In light of these developments, South Korea’s offshore wind sector is poised for exciting growth, fuelled by a strong commitment to renewable energy. The government is enhancing regulatory frameworks to streamline project approvals and attract investment, aiming to significantly increase offshore wind capacity by 2030.
What is Korea's offshore wind capacity?The target for offshore wind capacity is 12 GW, a significant increase from the 124.5 MW the country has today. Currently, the majority of the public Korean offshore wind developers are state-owned power generation companies (GENCOs). They are subsidiaries of the Korean Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO).
Will South Korea generate 20 GW of wind power by 2030?As a part of its Green New Deal, South Korea aims to generate 20% of its power with renewables by 2030. The target for offshore wind capacity is 12 GW, a significant increase from the 124.5 MW the country has today.
