The UK aims to quadruple the amount of offshore wind-generated to 40GW by 2030.
Anne-Marie Trevelyan said: “Our offshore wind energy sector is the shining jewel in our crown. The UK generates more electricity from offshore wind than any other country.
“And we continue to break records with wind turbines reaching new heights earlier this month – powering nearly half of the grid on a single day.”
Prime Minister Boris Johnson laid out his plan for a green industrial revolution in November which he said will create and support up to 250,000 jobs.
The scheme will mobilise £12billion of Government investment.
The clear direction by the country’s leaders for the sector has helped make Britain the world leader, the UK boss of energy firm Ørsted has said.
