How to make this ambition a reality was one of the topics discussed during the 7th DISE Energy Congress that took place in Wroclaw, Poland on September 29-30th, 2021.
Siemens Energy has been awarded its first offshore grid connection project in the United States.
In the US, hydropower contributes 46% to the energy generated from renewable sources. It is a significant contribution given the fact that there are only a few sources of renewable energy, like geothermal, wind, and solar. However, we have to look at the bigger picture and see that the total contribution of renewable energy only accounts for 10%.
Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy held a launch ceremony on October 25, with representatives from state and local government authorities and wind industry partners in Virginia for what will be the first offshore wind turbine blade facility in the United States. This is also the first commitment by a global offshore wind turbine manufacturer in a U.S.-based supply chain. This milestone solidifies Siemens Gamesa’s presence in the U.S. offshore wind market and position as the world’s leading offshore wind turbine manufacturer.
