**Submission Statement:**
South Korea has officially broken ground on a massive $2.5 billion, 400-megawatt offshore wind farm off the coast of Yeonggwang, set to power over 290,000 households annually by 2029.
What makes this project a major milestone for the global energy transition is its funding structure: it is the first mega-scale offshore wind project funded entirely by domestic capital (via local financial institutions and private equity). Traditionally, giant offshore wind projects rely heavily on multinational developers and foreign investments. By proving that a country can self-finance and build its own gigawatt-scale offshore wind infrastructure, South Korea is providing a blueprint for other nations looking to build energy independence, bypass foreign supply chain bottlenecks, and rapidly transition to renewables using local resources.
How long before the 200% tariffs from the US unless they stop in favor of more oil wells?
I swear, my cynicism really is just becoming more and more reinforced whenever clean tech is either forcibly stopped or ignored, only for that idiot Taylor Sheridan to outright lie about why oil is the only way on one of his overrated shows.
When China did it, it’s disgusting and an environmental problem. When capitalist S.Korea does it, it’s okay tho.
