Ever wondered where all the offshore wind farms are located?
I recently came across this interesting map showing offshore wind farms around the world: 4C Offshore's Global Offshore Wind Farm Map. It includes fully commissioned wind farms, projects under construction, projects in development, and even cancelled and dormant projects.
The online tool maps the current state of offshore wind projects worldwide and also serves as an important resource for those looking to build a career in this booming industry.
4C Offshore is unique in providing the largest verified source of global offshore wind farm intelligence, covering over 3,350 offshore wind projects in more than 60 countries (as of mid-2024).
The interactive map visually presents wind farms, ports, vessels and other infrastructure essential to offshore wind operations. Features of the map include:
- Technical specifications - Detailed data on installed offshore wind turbines, including over 290 turbine models, allowing job seekers to understand the technical landscape and identify areas where their skills are most needed.
- Geographical Information System (GIS) data - Accurate GIS data on wind farm boundaries and turbine locations provides a detailed understanding of project scope and geographical distribution.
While basic map viewing is free, access to more detailed information requires a subscription. For job seekers, subscriptions can potentially unlock deeper information about specific projects, companies and regional developments. This could help job seekers to target their applications more effectively:
- Find companies involved in projects that match their skills and career aspirations
- Use information from the map and additional sources, such as our renewable energy job board, to tailor their applications to the specific needs and trends of the offshore wind sector in particular areas.
