Our Mission

GWEC Asia is building a unified and strong alliance of local industry players, advocating for the benefits of wind power through strategic dialogue with governments and key stakeholders. By communicating the socio-economic benefits of wind energy, the Asia team works to raise government awareness of policy needs in both onshore and offshore sectors, while also collaborating with agencies to strengthen local capacity and create an enabling environment for a thriving regional wind industry.

 

GWEC Asia's role as a credible advocacy and research body for the regions wind sector, ensures a cohesive voice across the region. This unified approach creates transparent, efficient channels for policymakers to engage with the wind industry, helping to connect policy decisions with market realities.

 

By focusing resources on high-potential markets and engaging stakeholders across the private sector, GWEC Asia will accelerate the large-scale deployment of wind power and build a robust foundation for sector growth, ultimately creating the conditions for significant investment and long-term sustainability.

How Offshore Wind Development Can Support Coastal Regeneration: Global Overview and Best Practices For South Korea 2024

This report sets out the core economic and wider social and environmental benefits of offshore wind development and discusses how these benefits could be leveraged in order to achieve coastal regeneration. The report also highlights the potential economic impacts of offshore wind development in South Korea, using an input-output (IO) analysis to estimate the expected value-added and employment for the construction of 14.3 GW of OFW planned for 2030.

해상풍력 발전을 통한 연안지역재생 방안 대한민국을 위한 주요국현황과 모범 사례 2024

이 보고서는 해상풍력 개발의 핵심적인 경제적 이점과 광범위한 사회 및 환경적 이점을 제시하고, 연안 지역을 재생하기 위해 해상풍력 개발의 이점을 활용할 수 있는 방안에 대해 논의한다. 또한 2030년까지 계획된 14.3GW의 해상풍력 건설에 따른 예상 부가가치 및 고용을 추정하기 위해 산업연관(IO) 분석을 사용하여 한국 해상풍력 개발의 잠재적인 경제적 영향을 강조한다.

Exploring Coexistence Opportunities For Offshore Wind and Fisheries in South Korea: Global Overview and Best Practices for South Korea 2024

The South Korean Government has set a target of reaching 14.3 GW of OFW before 2030, and as of 2023, the country has 140 MW of installed capacity across six wind farms. Despite this ambitious target, commercial development is experiencing delays, due, in part, to opposition from the commercial fishing sector.

 

The fishing industry is concerned about the potential impacts of OFW development on livelihoods and economic viability. Perceived issues such as displacement from fishing grounds and potential changes in fish population distribution from OFW development increase the uncertainty facing fisheries.

한국의해상풍력및수산업을위한공존기회모색 글로벌개요및한국의모범사례 2024

한국 정부는 2030년까지 OFW 14.3GW 도달이라는 목표를 세웠으며, 2023년 현재 6개 풍력 발전 단지에 140MW의 설치 용량을 보유하고 있습니다. 이러한 야심찬 목표에도 불구하고 상업적 어업 부문의 반대로 인해 상업 개발이 지연되고 있습니다.
 
수산업은 OFW 개발이 생계와 경제적 생존 가능성에 미치는 잠재적 영향에 대해 우려하고 있습니다. 어장으로부터의 이동과 OFW 개발로 인한 어류 인구 분포의 잠재적 변화와 같은 인식된 문제는 어업이 직면한 불확실성을 증가시킵니다.

Japan's Offshore Wind Market Cost Reduction Study to 2050 (2021)

In October 2020, Japan announced the country’s goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. In order to realise this goal, the government has committed to fundamental review of its policy on the use of coal-fired power plants, and the construction of nuclear power plants is not supported by Japan’s citizens. Therefore, offshore wind power will need to play a key role in Japan’s energy future and on the country’s path to achieving net zero.
