in offshore wind<\/h3>\n<p>This method has enabled the Crown Estate to play a key role in supporting the UK\u2019s position as a world leader in offshore wind development, a sector which generated enough energy to power 50% of UK homes last year.<\/p>\n<p>In July, the government announced a new partnership between the Crown Estate and Great British Energy, which will see the two work together to develop an extra 20-30GW of offshore wind power.<\/p>\n<p>The move supports the accelerated delivery of clean energy infrastructure, benefiting millions of homes and businesses across the country.<\/p>\n<p>By prioritising different data, the Crown Estate spatial planning system ensures all environmental, industrial and social interests and constraints are fairly represented.<\/p>\n<p>Scenarios are then compared in a dashboard to understand the differences in cost, constraint or displacement, among other criteria.<\/p>\n<p>The system was developed by the Crown Estate\u2019s Marine and Digital teams, and includes data from over 250 sources, allowing for scenario planning for a wide range of marine industries.<\/p>\n<h3>Development decisions based on robust
