OverviewHistoryFuture developmentEconomicsOffshore wind resourcesPlanning and permittingLegal frameworkTypes

Offshore wind power or offshore wind energy is the generation of electricity through wind farms in bodies of water, usually at sea. Due to a lack of obstacles out at sea versus on land, higher wind speeds tend to be observed out at sea, which increases the amount of power that can be generated per wind turbine. Offshore wind farms are also less controversial than those on land, as they ha
