The first table presents the data for fixed-bottom wind classes and the second table for floating offshore technologies. Spatial parameters are averaged out in the binning of the resource into wind classes.
This work supports the responsible deployment of offshore wind energy and includes the separate impacts of existing infrastructure,
The range of capacity factors is estimated based on variation in the wind resource for offshore wind plants in the contiguous United States. The range of Base Year estimates illustrates the effect of
The report details information on the global and domestic offshore wind industry to provide current-state data and trends to help readers navigate technical and market barriers and opportunities.
Researchers analyze data obtained from a variety of sources about offshore wind energy projects that are both operating and under development to offer past, current, and forward-looking perspectives.
Researchers from NLR and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory conducted the study, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy Wind Energy Technologies Office. The intraregional,
In this report, we present the latest wind resource data specifically tailored for offshore regions in the United States.
2023 ATB data for offshore wind are shown above. Wind Resource Class 3 is displayed by default, as it is most representative of near-term U.S. fixed-bottom offshore wind projects. Details about the wind
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) was commissioned by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) to assess how our current understanding of wind resource, technology
A domestic offshore wind energy supply chain would require significant development of manufacturing facilities, ports, vessels, and a trained workforce to produce, transport, and install the
This guide provides information and resources intended to support readers in building a foundation of knowledge about offshore wind energy. This guide was authored by Matilda Kreider, Frank Oteri,
A rigorous and integrated methodology based on NREL classification and the TOPSIS multi-criteria analysis was developed for the evaluation and ranking of offshore wind farm sites
The Atlantic Offshore Wind Transmission Study, published by DOE and NREL in March 2024, addresses gaps in offshore transmission planning along the Atlantic seaboard (Brinkman et al. 2024).
The Offshore Wind Market Report: 2024 Edition provides detailed information on the U.S. and global offshore wind energy industries to inform policymakers, researchers, and analysts about technology,
