The UK’s world-leading offshore wind industry is growing fast and is set to boom for years to come. Working closely with the Government, the industry Council is aiming to supply more than one third of our country’s electricity needs by 2030, powering not just homes, offices and factories but also electric vehicles and heating systems too.
With this ambitious vision comes a huge economic opportunity – to build an industry that will support thousands of jobs throughout the UK, particularly in coastal regions where communities are reaping the economic benefits of offshore wind.
This is a dynamic and innovative sector, offering a variety of professionally rewarding and well-paid career paths. You can make a difference by playing a part in helping to increase the amount of clean power we generate, cutting the UK’s carbon emissions by millions of tonnes every year. This interactive map highlights just some of the great employment, educational and community benefits across different regions of the UK – now and in the future.
