EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Trump's Offshore Wind Turmoil

EnergyOMNI Perspectives

EnergyOMNI Perspectives EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Trump's Offshore Wind Turmoil U.S. President Donald Trump was sworn in for his second term on January 20 and immediately reversed many of the Biden administration's policies, with renewable energy and climate policy among the first to be affected. The offshore wind industry has become a particular focus. On January 20, the White House issued a memorandum announcing "Temporary Withdrawal of All Areas on the Outer Continental Shelf from Offshore Wind Leasing and Review of the Federal Government's Leasing and Permitting Practices for Wind Projects." Offshore wind projects that had already obtained seabed leases were also ordered to halt construction and undergo renewed review.

EnergyOMNI Perspectives EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Colombia's First Offshore Wind Auction in 2025 Attracts Bid From CIP, Two Chinese Developers Pre-qualified Colombia will hold its first-ever offshore wind auction this year, marking the first offshore wind tender in Latin America. In 2022, Colombia published its Offshore Wind Energy Roadmap, which estimated the country's offshore wind potential at 50 GW—27 GW suitable for fixed-bottom and around 21 GW for floating wind. The government has also set a target of installing 7 GW of offshore wind capacity by 2040.

EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Canada to Launch Offshore Wind Tender in 2025 Prequalification Process Underway

EnergyOMNI Perspectives

EnergyOMNI Perspectives EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Canada to Launch Offshore Wind Tender in 2025 Prequalification Process Underway After several offshore wind projects in the United States were suspended or canceled during the Trump administration, neighboring Canada is moving in the opposite direction—preparing to invest in offshore wind development this year. In January 2025, the Canadian government released a Regional Assessment of Offshore Wind Development in Nova Scotia, located on the country's southeastern coast. The report initially identified eight areas suitable for offshore wind development. In March, Nova Scotia's Department of Energy and Natural Resources further narrowed the selection to five potential wind energy areas.

EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Indonesia and Denmark Hold Offshore Wind Power Exchange

EnergyOMNI Perspectives

EnergyOMNI Perspectives EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Indonesia and Denmark Hold Offshore Wind Power Exchange Indonesia, an archipelago of 17,000 islands with long coastlines, has abundant geothermal resources and, more recently, increasing attention has turned to wind energy. In 2021, the World Bank assessed Indonesia's offshore wind potential at 277 GW, of which 198 GW is fixed-bottom and 79 GW floating. According to the International Renewable Energy Agency's (IRENA) 2022 outlook, onshore wind potential stands at 19.6 GW, while offshore potential could reach as much as 589 GW. In 2023, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) of Indonesia estimated Indonesia's total wind potential at nearly 155 GW, with 94.2 GW offshore and 60.6 GW onshore. Eastern regions such as Maluku, Papua, and Nusa Tenggara account for around 40% of this national potential. In addition, the southern coast of Indonesia (Java–Timor), the Java Sea, the Banda Sea, and the Arafura Sea demonstrate strong average wind speeds at 100 meters, making them ideal for offshore wind development.

EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Offshore Wind Industry Facing Headwinds: Tenders Attract Little Interest Across Countries

EnergyOMNI Perspectives

EnergyOMNI Perspectives EnergyOMNI's Perspectives I Offshore Wind Industry Facing Headwinds: Tenders Attract Little Interest Across Countries In the UK, the fifth allocation round(AR5) of the Contracts for Difference (CfD) auction in 2023 failed to attract any bids from developers. The main reason was that, given current cost conditions, the government's price cap of £44/MWh was not economically viable. In response, the UK government raised the price cap by 66% to £73/MWh in AR6 (2024), successfully awarding 5.3 GW of offshore wind contracts.
