Is offshore wind the energy of the future

Offshore wind farms solve one of renewable energy’s biggest problems: unreliability. With wind almost always blowing on sea, there is no lack of power. But the technology is struggling with a bunch of other hurdles. We’re destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn’t need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we’ll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess. #PlanetA #Offshore #Energy Study: Levelized cost of renewable energy technologies: Environmental impacts of offshore wind farms in the belgian north sea: Offshore wind farms in Germany:
