Planning Challenges in Offshore Renewable Energy: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Justin Moran:

The target is 5 GW of offshore wind energy connected to the system and generating. At this point, it is fair to say that we will miss this target. We hope to see projects connect in maybe 2031 or 2032. I do not think we are counting on having offshore wind energy connected to the system and generating in 2030 in order to hit that 80% target.
