Summary of U.S. Department of Energy Offshore Wind Strategy

Goals

• Achieve 30 GW of offshore wind energy deployment by 2030.
• Establish a pathway to 110 GW or more by 2050.
• Support 15 GW of floating offshore wind capacity by 2035.

Key Initiatives

• NOW (Near-term Offshore Wind): Reduce fixed-bottom wind costs to $51/MWh by 2030 through design optimization, R&D, and supply chain growth, while ensuring equitable deployment.
• FORWARD (Floating Offshore Wind Research & Development): Lower floating wind costs to $45/MWh by 2035 via turbine innovation, serial manufacturing, and environmental studies.
• CONNECT (Transmission Solutions): Facilitate grid integration for large-scale wind deployment through R&D, planning, and federal support, addressing reliability and resilience.
• TRANSFORM (Co-Generation): Advance technologies like hydrogen and energy storage for decarbonization, enabling wind-to-X applications and offshore hubs.

Primary Challenges

• Reducing costs and improving competitiveness.
• Expanding predictable leasing, permitting, and ocean co-use.
• Developing a mature domestic supply chain.
• Planning and implementing grid transmission for gigawatt-scale deployment.

DOE Role

• Lead R&D, stakeholder engagement, and federal financing across multiple offices, including collaborations with agencies and industry partners.
• Focus on innovation, workforce development, and just, sustainable deployment.

Impact

• Potential for economic growth, job creation, emissions reductions, and enhanced grid resilience, with specific targets for environmental protection and marginalized communities.
