Wind turbines along coastline, North Holland, Netherlands
Offshore wind power or offshore wind energy is the use of wind farms constructed in bodies of water, usually in the ocean on the continental shelf, to harvest wind energy to generate electricity. Higher wind speeds are available offshore compared to on land, so offshore wind poweras electricity generation is higher per amount of capacity installed, and NIMBY opposition to construction is usually much weaker. Unlike the typical use of the term offshore in the marine industry, offshore wind power includes inshore water areas such as lakes, fjords and sheltered coastal areas, utilizing traditional fixed-bottom wind turbine technologies, as well as deeper-water areas utilizing floating wind turbines

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking sight of wind turbines standing tall along the picturesque coastline of North Holland, Netherlands. Offshore wind power has revolutionized the way we harness renewable energy by constructing wind farms in bodies of water, such as oceans and lakes. The strategic placement of these turbines takes advantage of higher wind speeds available offshore, resulting in a greater generation capacity compared to on-land installations. One notable advantage is that offshore wind power often faces less opposition from NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) groups due to its location away from residential areas. This allows for smoother construction processes and faster implementation of sustainable energy solutions. It's important to note that when referring to offshore wind power, it encompasses not only open ocean locations but also inshore water areas like lakes and sheltered coastal regions. These sites utilize traditional fixed-bottom turbine technologies while deeper-water areas employ floating turbines. The ethereal clouds hovering above add a touch of serenity to this environmentally conscious scene captured by Danita Delimont. This stunning image serves as a reminder that through innovative approaches like offshore wind power, we can tap into nature's immense potential and generate clean electricity while preserving our planet for future generations.
