South Korea is looking to expand its offshore wind capacity to increase energy self-sufficiency and drive regional economic growth. The strategy emphasizes learning from Denmark's model to create industrial synergies in shipbuilding and steel while implementing profit-sharing models for local residents. Key hurdles include the need for a more predictable investment environment and significant upgrades to the national power grid. Without coordinated transmission infrastructure, the ability to integrate and distribute large-scale offshore wind energy remains limited.
