Wind power in Europe continues to set records. Concerns over supply chains and geopolitical issues have posed challenges but have not derailed progress.


Developments in the North Sea continue at a great pace but it is not Europe’s only resource for wind power. Other areas, some of them far-flung and unexpected, show great potential to provide clean electricity for all of Europe.


That potential is now being tapped, as technological advancements and policy shifts gradually unlock zero-carbon generation on the Atlantic coast, in the Mediterranean, Baltic, Black and even Caspian seas.


WindEurope CEO [Giles Dickson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/giles-dickson-98607229) joins the podcast to talk more about far far away wind farms, the general state of the sector and some of the challenges that still need to be overcome.
