Portugal
Portugal has a national target to award 10 GW of offshore wind by 2030.
Energising Portugal with offshore wind
Portugal has a national target to allocate 10 GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030, with 2 GW operational by the same date.
All of this will be built using state-of-the-art floating wind technology which is well suited to the deep waters of the Iberian Peninsula.
In May 2023, global offshore wind developer Corio Generation announced a partnership with leading Portuguese renewable energy developer Hyperion Renewables to explore opportunities to build offshore wind projects off the coast of Portugal.
The partnership combines Corio’s market leading expertise in auction preparation and site selection with Hyperion’s wealth of experience in stakeholder engagement and deep knowledge of the country’s regulatory landscape.
Determined to make a positive impact
As one of the world’s leading offshore wind developers, Corio Generation is expertly placed to support the energy transition in Portugal.
Bringing together a sector-leading team of industrial, finance, development and asset management experts, Corio has one of the largest offshore wind development portfolios, standing at more than 30+ GW worldwide. Read more.
Corio Generation is a portfolio company of Macquarie Asset Management operating on a standalone basis.
“As an early-stage market for offshore wind, it was essential to join forces with a Portuguese partner who intimately knows the local market and its regulatory landscape, and the team at Hyperion fits this description perfectly.”
