Offshore Wind Power In The United States
Offshore wind power in the United States is in the early stages of development. In 2022, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) estimated that the country has a "technical" resource potential of 1,476 GW (fixed-bottom) and 2,773 GW (floating) offshore wind power. Offshore wind projects are currently being developed along the East Coast, in the Great Lakes, and on the Pacific Coast, with a focus on areas with high wind potential.
