Episode Description:
Korea just doubled its offshore wind capacity overnight, and it's tied directly to the AI boom.
Korea completed its largest offshore wind farm off Yeonggwang, installing 61 turbines capable of generating about 900 gigawatt-hours a year. The 2.3 trillion won ($1.7 billion) project can power roughly 250,000 households and feeds a new AI data center cluster nearby. It doubles the country's total offshore wind capacity to 716.8 megawatts nationwide. We break down what this signals about Korea's renewable energy push and its ties to the AI infrastructure boom.
