“Projects are becoming bigger, and we will see floating wind, floating offshore wind becoming commercially much more scaled, much larger than we see in the moment. And that will we see further cost reduction, I'm sure because of the scale and larger projects, larger turbines”

Assertion Not checkable as stated
Offshore wind LCOE can sometimes beat onshore wind due to scale
“But then on the other side, you can generate electricity at much larger scale. So the turbines are much larger, more efficiency you know, higher wind speeds offshore. And that means that actually the levelized cost of energy is actually lower than for example,…”

Insight
Scaling green hydrogen is more complex due to lack of existing infrastructure
“Well, in offshore wind, in a way, we focused on the production sites, you know, putting offshore winter ones in the water, but There is a grid system. There's an electricity market that we can plug in. So from this perspective, offshore wind was an easy one. Y…”

Assertion Not checkable as stated
Offshore wind is facing broad cost increases of around 20%
“So that means cost increases, and we're looking at around 20%, and it's getting really, that is really cutting across not only offshore wind, but it's also, you know, impacting other sectors.”
