<div id="readability-page-1"><div><p>HAMBURG (dpa-AFX) - The North Sea coastal states, together with the offshore wind industry and transmission system operators, have reached an investment pact to expand wind energy production in the North Sea. The agreement, signed by energy ministers at the North Sea Summit in Hamburg, calls for offshore wind power plants to be interconnected with electricity links to multiple neighboring countries.</p><p>         Up to 100 gigawatts (GW) of generation capacity are to be made available across borders, according to the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action. At the same time, the wind energy and grid industries will be provided with planning and investment security through the assurance of further continuous offshore wind tenders in the North Sea beyond 2030. </p><p>         Investment Package Aims to Deliver Affordable Offshore Wind Energy </p><p>         In return, the industry commits to reducing so-called levelized costs of electricity by 30 percent by 2040. In addition, by 2030, 9.5 billion euros are to be invested in new production capacities in Europe, and 91,000 additional jobs are to be created. </p><p>         &#34;By consistently expanding and intelligently networking offshore energy, we are creating affordable, clean, and secure energy, reducing strategic dependencies, and increasing Europe's overall resilience,&#34; said Minister for Economic Affairs and Energy Katherina Reiche. </p><p>The joint efforts come at a time of uncertainty. &#34;Not only since Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine have we seen increasing attacks on our critical infrastructure,&#34; said the CDU politician at the start of the summit. Power grids, pipelines, and vital data cables, which are crucial for the continent's digital sovereignty, are being attacked, &#34;and that is why, for the first time, NATO is represented here at a high level.&#34;/fi/DP/jha</p></div></div>
