Offshore wind energy generation involves installing wind turbines in bodies of water, usually far from the shore. These turbines harness the power of wind over open water, where wind speeds are generally higher and more consistent. Offshore wind projects have seen a rapid increase in recent years.
Wind velocity is higher and more dependable at offshore locations than onshore ones. More importantly, offshore wind energy is known to be characterized by higher power density, and superior capacity factor compared to onshore wind energy (Díaz-Motta et al., 2023).
Onshore and offshore wind resources are characterized by several variables that can positively or negatively affect the efficiency of the respective wind energy that is to be harnessed for the generation or maximization of electric power.
Even though some differences have been observed with regard to historical achievements of onshore and offshore wind power installations, both (IRENA and GWEC) have indicated further improvements would be achieved with onshore and offshore technologies in terms of energy costs, power production, impacts of wind farms etc. in the upcoming future.
Onshore wind is wind turbines placed on land. The turbines are positioned—normally in very isolated locations, or sometimes in very distant areas—where the wind conditions are very favorable. Onshore wind farms are easier to construct and maintain compared to their offshore wind energy.
Only with these advancements will onshore wind energy be able to continue moving towards even higher efficiency, lesser environmental impact, and broader acceptance. Offshore and onshore wind turbines are virtually identical in terms of how they harvest wind energy.
