Floating turbines are the only way some countries and U.S. states can capture offshore wind energy on a large scale. In the U.S. alone, 2.8 terawatts of wind energy potential blows over ocean ...

The Department of Energy has calculated that floating wind power could generate as much as 2.8 terawatts of energy in the U.S., more than double the country’s electricity consumption.

Floating installed capacity is forecast to reach 63 GW by 2035, which translates to the installation of close to 4,000 floating turbines, over 16,000 anchors and close to 17,000 mooring lines.

The total installed global capacity of wind grew to upwards of 900GW in 2023, making the sector an essential part of the energy transition. However, with almost all online turbines being fixed in ...

Mads Nipper, chief executive of Danish wind developer Orsted, says it may be possible to develop floating wind projects in waters 1,000 meters deep — about 3,280 feet, or more than half a mile down.

Floating platforms can support wind turbines that can produce 10 megawatts or more of power—that’s similar in size to other offshore wind turbines and several times larger than the capacity of ...

A floating wind turbine prototype has generated its first 1kWh of power off the coast of Spain’s Canary Islands, marking a major milestone in its makers’ goals to begin manufacturing their ...

Developer Gazelle Wind Power just publicly explained, for the first time, how its newest floating offshore wind platform works – here’s why it’s a unique solution.. As Electrek recently ...

Norway's World Wide Wind has a radically different take on offshore wind power. These floating, vertical-axis wind turbines feature two sets of blades, tuned to contra-rotate – and they promise ...
