The following table lists offshore wind farm areas (by nameplate capacity) that are in various states development for the Outer Continental Shelf in U.S. territorial waters of the East Coast of the United States, [31] where a Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) wind energy area lease has been secured [32] [33] and have gained at least some ...
There are more than 27 wind farms currently operating in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Theoretically, the energetic development of these wind farms could provide power for nearly 350,000 homes, or 1,300 megawatts. [2] A majority of the farms are located in the southwest-central and northeastern regions of the state. [3]
It also lists the largest offshore wind farms currently under construction, the largest proposed offshore wind farms, and offshore wind farms with notability other than size. As of 2022, Hornsea 2 in the United Kingdom is the largest offshore wind farm in the world at 1,386 MW. [1]
The first offshore wind farm, Block Island Wind Farm, began operation in 2016. [2] The first commercial-scale (greater than 100 MW) offshore wind farm, South Fork Wind in federal waters offshore Rhode Island, was fully commissioned on March 14, 2024. As of May 31, 2024, total offshore wind power was 174 MW.
[114] [116] Because wind turbines can be positioned at some distance from shore, impacts to recreation and fishing can be managed by careful planning of wind farm locations. [ 114 ] Five exploratory leases for wind power production on the Outer Continental Shelf offshore from New Jersey and Delaware were issued in June 2009 by the Secretary of ...
2003 US Department of Energy wind resource map of North Carolina Experimental NASA wind turbine on Howard's Knob in Boone (1978-1983) Wind power in North Carolina is found along the coastal areas in the east and mountain regions in the western part of the state. [1] The state has significant offshore wind resources.
This is a list of the onshore wind farms that are larger than 250 MW in current nameplate capacity. Many of these wind farms have been built in stages, and construction of a further stage may be continuing at some of these sites. The Gansu Wind Farm in China is the largest wind farm in the world, with a target capacity of 20,000 MW by 2020.
