Canadian offshore wind power goal in Atlantic green hydrogen drive

Nova Scotia

Nova Scotia has become the first province in Canada to set out ambitions to build industrial-scale wind power plant off its shores, with its premier today (Tuesday) outlining plans to bring 5GW online by decade’s-end to support development of green hydrogen production in the country’s maritime region.

Flagship leases for offshore wind arrays in the Canadian Atlantic will be awarded through a competitive auction to be shepherded by the provincial and federal governments, with expectations of a first call for bids in 2025.
