Offshore wind energy in the world context

Gaetano Gaudiosi

Renewable Energy, 1996, vol. 9, issue 1, 899-904

Abstract: The interest for the exploitation of the offshore wind energy is growing in Europe, where man land use is very high resulting in strong limitation to the installation of onshore wind farms. The today offshore operating wind power is 12 MW, with two wind farms in Denmark and one in Netherlands; it starts to be significant (0.6%) in terms of the onshore power, 2000 MW in Europe.
