JPMany people believe that offshore wind power will be the main source of energy in the future. However, whether this will actually happen and what the advantages/disadvantages of this energy source are, let’s find out and evaluate.
In the context of fossil fuels, traditional energy sources are increasingly depleted, prices are skyrocketing…, sustainable energy development is becoming a top priority for countries around the world, including Vietnam.
In developed countries around the world, offshore wind power is becoming a more popular choice for energy producers. It is seen as a new trend in the energy industry because it can produce electricity efficiently and sustainably.
Advantages of offshore wind power
Offshore wind power is currently one of the clean and sustainable energy sources that is encouraged and widely developed worldwide. It can help reduce greenhouse gases and other harmful pollutants emitted from traditional energy sources. This helps protect the environment and minimize human impact on nature.
Along with the development of technology, offshore wind power is creating great competition due to decreasing prices in the context of traditional energy sources being at risk of becoming scarce and depleted.
The large size of the wind turbine blades, stable wind speeds, and the ability to produce continuous electricity are some of its advantages.

Disadvantages
High initial investment costs: Specifically, many wind power manufacturers need to invest billions of dollars to build offshore wind equipment. This enormous cost makes it difficult to deploy offshore wind for small businesses and developing countries.
Risk of negative impact on marine organisms: Wind turbine blades can cause noise and vibration in the water, affecting marine organisms such as fish, shrimp, jellyfish, and other marine animals, impacting the fishing industry.
However, in reality, offshore wind power is still a potential solution for energy and environmental issues. Many countries and businesses are investing in offshore wind power and hope that it will become one of the world’s main sources of energy in the future.
Therefore, it can be seen that although it is a potential solution for energy and environmental issues, a promising industry with many opportunities to become a leading sector in the future, offshore wind power needs to continue to be researched and developed in the future, with the hope of becoming one of the world’s main sources of energy.
In addition, to develop offshore wind power in a sustainable way, we need to find solutions to minimize its impact on the environment and marine species. At the same time, the government also needs to introduce supportive policies and encourage businesses to invest in offshore wind power to develop this clean and sustainable energy source.
