Golden Ten Data, July 6 – According to a report by Nikkei, BP is considering withdrawing from its offshore wind power project in northern Japan, which it is jointly developing with Japanese partners. Although the consortium led by Marubeni Corporation is expected to continue with the project, the withdrawal of this international energy giant undoubtedly deals a blow to Japan’s offshore wind power industry. According to several sources, BP has begun consultations with consortium partners regarding its exit. BP’s UK headquarters stated that no final decision has been made yet.
