Chile has presented a new offshore wind roadmap as it aims to unlock offshore wind potential and boost the development of a domestic offshore wind industry.


The roadmap was highlighted during an event co-hosted by the Embassy of Chile in the United Kingdom and The Carbon Trust as part of London Climate Action Week.


According to the Chilean government, the roadmap provides a framework for offshore wind development while supporting wider decarbonisation objectives, energy security and industrial growth. In addition, it aims to encourage investment in infrastructure, strengthen supply chains and create skilled jobs.


The event brought together representatives from government, industry and the Global Offshore Wind Alliance (GOWA) to discuss the steps needed to move the sector from planning to deployment.


Chile joined GOWA in 2025 and has identified offshore wind as a key component of its long-term energy transition strategy.
