Offshore Wind Farm
An offshore wind farm is a group of wind turbines located in bodies of water, typically on the continental shelf. These turbines harness wind energy to generate electricity, which is then transmitted to the mainland through underwater cables. Offshore wind farms can produce more energy than onshore farms due to stronger and more consistent winds.
These farms are part of the growing renewable energy sector, aimed at reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. Countries like Denmark and Germany have invested heavily in offshore wind technology, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.
