Despite growing past times 30% inward the end nine years offshore air current ability withal exclusively provides 0.3% of electricity but about the globe. Some countries, such every bit the UK, Federal Republic of Federal Republic of Germany as well as Kingdom of Denmark accept of late added a lot of offshore air current ability capacity. However in that place is withal huge potential for offshore air current ability but about the world. In fact air current ability has the potential to supply to a greater extent than than eighteen times the global electricity ask today.
The IEA inward collaboration amongst Imperial College London has assessed the potential for offshore air current evolution across the world. Alongside its study into the potential of air current ability IEA has created an interactive map which shows where offshore air current has the highest technical potential as well as where the latest offshore air current projects are beingness built. The map inward Offshore Wind Outlook 2019 uses 4 colors to exhibit the areas of highest potential. These colors exhibit areas inward deep & shallow H2O as well as inward regions far & most from shore.
The potential for offshore air current ability generation is modeled using a divulge of variables, including air current speed as well as weather condition information from global reanalysis models.
