North American countries. Although wind capacity in the United States currently accounts for a larger share of the world's installed wind energy 11, its use of wind energy is largely confined to onshore developments and the United States lags far behind Europe in terms of offshore wind energy production. Thus, in October, the Greek government published the draft national program for the development of offshore wind farms, supervised by the Hellenic hydrocarbon and energy resources management company HEREMA, which proposed offshore areas, the majority of which are suitable for floating wind technology. global offshore wind capacity. Most of China's new capacity was added in Jiangsu, Guangdong and Fujian, with Jiangsu accounting for the lion's share, 1.64% of the national total. Guangdong and Fujian. respectively. Covid does not stop the rush for new construction. The Vysus Group will use the new office as a strategic hub for its work in the offshore wind industry. After operating an office for many years in nearby Bath, global engineering and technical consultancy firm Vysus Group has returned to the South West with the opening of its latest offices in Bristol. The office will be the centerpiece.
