#OffshoreWind of all sizes and configs is the #HeavyLifter in #Renewables. These vast #WindFarms surpass all #FossilFuel, #Hydro and #NuclearEnergy sites in terms of #NameplateCapacity, much less being #CarbonFree and #EcologicallySound.

#OffshoreWind is the only #TeraWatt Class #HeavyLifter available to the #EU as it works to #Decarbonize #AtScale and to #ElectrifyEverything. Combine it with #Solar(everywhere), #Ocean and #BESS for an #AlwaysOn #grid no matter the circumstances. Add #BehavioralChange into the mix as well.
