In 2023, the group of the world’s largest offshore wind turbine manufacturers made the front page with progress on 15+ MW models and we also got to see, same as in the year prior, another announcement of an upcoming WTG that breaks the current megawatt record.

As wind turbines keep growing, so do calls for standardisation in the offshore wind industry. While standardisation is sought for across a range of components and equipment, wind turbine sizes remain the focal point of talks about accelerating deployment, especially as specialised installation vessels are starting to run low while 2030 targets wait around the corner.
