Only with the right investment framework can offshore wind create valuable jobs in the future and deliver long-term low-price electricity.<\/blockquote>\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/windeurope.org\/annual2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/ambassadors\/RWE-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sven Uterm\u00f6hlen\">\r\n      <div class=\"qa\">\r\n        <h2>Q&amp;A <span class=\"interviewee\">with Sven Uterm\u00f6hlen, CEO Offshore Wind, RWE Renewables<\/span><\/h2>\r\n        <p><strong>What is the most pressing priority  for your company today?<\/strong><br>\r\nOne answer to the current energy crisis is to speed up and scale up   the  expansion of renewables, particularly offshore wind energy. We   have seen  ambitious expansion targets all over Europe. That is   justifiable, because it is  necessary. However, current European   offshore wind supply chains cannot provide  the volumes required and   need to grow substantially. To progress rapidly, we  need a   comprehensive action plan and cost-reflective offshore wind auction    designs. After all, only with the right investment framework offshore   wind can create valuable jobs in the future and deliver  long-term   low-price electricity for consumers in Europe.<\/p>\r\n        <p><strong>How does RWE Offshore wind contribute in addressing this issue?<\/strong><br>\r\n          As a major  global offshore wind player with more than 20 years   of experience in the  business, we have an excellent track record of   developing, constructing and  delivering complex wind projects at sea.   We work closely together with the  European supply chain. At RWE we are   investing more&nbsp;than \u20ac50 billion gross  in our green core business by   2030&nbsp;\u2013 that is \u20ac50 billion for climate  protection. A considerable share   will be used to grow our global offshore wind  capacity to 8 GW by   2030&nbsp;from now 3 GW (accounting  only for RWE\u2019s share). The focus for   further growth is on North America, the  Asia Pacific region, and Europe   in particular. <\/p>\r\n        <p><strong>What do  you like about the wind industry?<br>\r\n        <\/strong>I like the passion  of the people who are driving the   energy transition by developing, building and  operating wind farms   every day. And we need more.  More&nbsp;wind&nbsp;power&nbsp;on land and at sea,&nbsp;and   more  professionals.&nbsp;Copenhagen&nbsp;is the right place for bringing the    important players of the European wind industry together. <\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"col-md-12 m-b-2 quote\">\r\n      <blockquote>It\u2019s time to pick up the pace. The allocation of land for wind farms and the approval processes need to speed up. On top of that, all renewable energy projects in the EU should be classified as \u201cmatters of overriding public interest\u201d until climate neutrality is achieved.<\/blockquote>\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/windeurope.org\/annual2023\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/ambassadors\/RWE-2.jpg\" alt=\"Katja W\u00fcnschel\">\r\n      <div class=\"qa\">\r\n        <h2>Q&amp;A <span class=\"interviewee\">with Katja W\u00fcnschel, CEO Onshore Wind and Solar Europe &amp; Australia, RWE Renewables<\/span><\/h2>\r\n        <p><strong>What is  the most pressing priority for your company today?<\/strong><br>\r\nThe  expansion of renewables is currently experiencing a strong   boost. Nevertheless,  we must take advantage of the momentum without   slowing down. In fact, to  achieve the ambitious expansion targets for   renewables, the EU must further  heighten the pace. Renewable energies   should be classified as \u201ca matter of  overriding public interest\u201d until   climate neutrality is achieved. This  facilitates the designation of   sufficient areas and helps to speed up the  approval procedures, which   have been a major obstacle to the expansion of wind  energy in the EU so   far.<\/p>\r\n        <p><strong>How does  RWE\u2019s onshore wind division help address this issue?<\/strong><br>\r\n          As one of  the world\u2019s leading companies in the renewable energy   sector, RWE is resolutely  driving forward its expansion. By the end of   this decade, we will invest more  than \u20ac50 billion gross in green   technologies. We are moving fast \u2013 we currently  have around 20 onshore   projects under construction in seven countries in  Europe. In our home   market Germany, we are realising every renewable project  that is   possible. RWE is an established, trustworthy business partner in this    sector. We plan, build and operate our wind farms from a single source   and  incorporate each new project into our own portfolio. We are   investing in  projects, sites, and our teams. We are opening new offices   worldwide and  expanding our workforce considerably. In other words, we   are making our  contribution to the energy transition.<\/p>\r\n        <p><strong>What do  you like about the wind industry?<\/strong><br>\r\n          We are all  part of the most exciting industry of all. Because we are   shaping the energy  transition! It is crucial that the areas for onshore   wind power are designated  quickly. It is crucial that wind turbines   are granted all permits even faster.  It is crucial that construction   does not fail due to a lack of grid connections  or long processes. Our   actions count, because we need every green kilowatt hour  produced. For   our security of supply, for our independence, for the climate. And   working on this is a monumental,  meaningful task.<\/p>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visit our stand Hall D, Stand D-G10, D-H10 Find us on social media It\u2019s time to ramp up the European offshore wind supply chain on a large scale.
