A few data about offshore wind installations at the end
of 2008
• 1,471 MW wind power capacity
• 2% of the cumulative installed capacity of wind power in
the European Union
• 357 MW installed in 2008
• According to EWEA 3.5 GW should be installed by 2010,
35 GW by 2020 and 120 GW by 2030

Strategic Research Agenda
Market Deployment Strategy
From 2008 to 2030
2030 Objective
More than 10% Europe’s electricity demand from offshore
wind
• Offshore generating costs competitive with other
sources
• Commercially mature technology with a water depth of
up to 50m
• Technology proven through full-scale demonstration in
deeper water

What about the Mediterranean Sea?
• Potential of 2000-4000 MW in Italian waters deeper than 60 m
estimated from Wind Atlas carried out by Cesi Ricerca
• Blue H launched a first floating 80 kW wind turbine offshore
southern Italy at the end of 2007 off the Apulian coast
G.I.S. evaluation of Italian potential
sites for offshore wind farms
