offshore renewables

Offshore renewables refer to energy sources generated in oceans and seas, primarily wind and solar power. Offshore wind farms consist of turbines situated on the water that harness wind energy to produce electricity. These facilities take advantage of stronger and more consistent winds available at sea. Solar panels can also be installed on floating platforms. Offshore renewables are increasingly important as they contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and help combat climate change by providing clean, sustainable energy. Their development supports energy security and can create jobs in coastal regions.
