Upon completion, its capacity is projected to be the largest offshore wind farm in Japan. [13] In 2011, Japan stated plans to build a pilot floating wind farm, with six 2-megawatt turbines, off the Fukushima coast. [14] After the evaluation phase is complete in 2016, "Japan plans to build as many as 80 floating wind turbines off Fukushima by ...

The Aoyama Plateau Wind Farm (青山高原ウインドファーム, Aoyama kōgen uindofāmu) is the largest wind farm in Japan. It has a total capacity of 95 MW, and is located in the Aoyama Plateau, Muroo-Akame-Aoyama Quasi-National Park .
It has been estimated that Japan has the potential for 144 gigawatts (GW) for onshore wind and 608 GW of offshore wind capacity. [70] As of 2023, the country had a total installed capacity of 5.2 GW. As of 2018, government targets for wind power deployment were relatively low when compared to other countries, at 1.7% of electricity production ...
The Ishikari Bay New Port Offshore Wind Farm is an offshore wind farm off Ishikari Bay, Ishikari, Hokkaido, Japan. As of May 2024, it is, at 112MW, the largest commercial offshore wind farm in Japan. [3] The project was originally developed by Green Power Investment Corporation (GPI), the Japanese affiliate of Pattern Energy. [4]
The Gansu Wind Farm in China is the largest wind farm in the world, with a target capacity of 20,000 MW by 2020. A wind farm or wind park, or wind power plant, [1] is a group of wind turbines in the same location used to produce electricity. Wind farms vary in size from a small number of turbines to several hundred wind turbines covering an ...
Hydroelectricity is Japan's main renewable energy source, with an installed capacity of about 27 GW, or 16% of the total generation capacity, of which about half is pumped-storage. The production was 73 TWh in 2010. [37] As of September 2011, Japan had 1,198 small hydropower plants with a total capacity of 3,225 MW.
The Japanese Wind Power Association claims a potential of 519 GW of floating offshore wind capacity in Japan. [80] The four-post principle from Fukushima was certified for feasibility in 2020, and consortium was formed to mass produce the floating foundations. [ 81 ]
