A 2 megawatt floating wind turbine designed to operate offshore, representing the first phase of the world's first large-scale floating offshore wind farm off Fukushima.

Conventional offshore wind turbines with foundations fixed directly to the seabed, limited to relatively shallow coastal waters.

North Sea

Spain

Another offshore wind project in development for Spain using different technology than the North Sea floating turbine project.

A floating offshore wind turbine greater than 10 MW to be developed and tested in the North Sea by a European consortium led by Iberdrola. The project aims to reduce the levelized cost of offshore wind energy to $44-66 per MWh.

A massive floating offshore wind turbine exceeding 10 MW capacity designed to reduce the levelized cost of offshore wind energy. The turbine will be tested at Norway's Marine Energy Test Centre in the North Sea.
