The new Welsh Government Minister with responsibility for energy has said Wales is open for business when it comes to offshore wind and its potential to be a catalyst for economic growth and prosperity.

Adam Price, Cabinet Minister for Enterprise, Connectivity and Energy, also said the new Welsh Government is keen to build an open and collaborative relationship with the offshore wind sector and other key partners such as UK Government and The Crown Estate.

This will help ensure Wales delivers on its refreshed economic mission to reduce Wales’ productivity gap with the UK by half within 10 years.

Wales currently has three operational offshore wind farms that generate 726MW of electricity.
