offshore energy

Offshore energy refers to the generation of power from sources located in bodies of water, primarily oceans or seas. This includes offshore wind farms, where wind turbines harness wind energy, and offshore oil and gas platforms, which extract fossil fuels. Additionally, offshore solar panels and wave energy converters are emerging technologies. Offshore energy is significant for reducing reliance on fossil fuels, minimizing land use, and leveraging strong ocean winds and waves for electricity, thus contributing to a more sustainable energy future while addressing climate change challenges.
