Quick Scan
Offshore Wind Energy in the North Sea Region
A report about the state of affairs of offshore wind energy projects, national policies and economic, environmental and technological conditions in Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and the United Kingdom.
The partners of the planning and participation workstream have established a quick scan, describing country-specific regulations, problems and bottlenecks for offshore wind energy in the North Sea Region. Ultimately, it provides an overview on the offshore wind farm planning processes in Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium and the United Kingdom.
The result, the report Offshore Wind Energy in the North Sea Region, serves as a base line survey for all POWER activities. The study has been edited and coordinated by the University of Groningen, and was published on 1st September 2005. It is strived for an updated version in 2006 to allow for mayor changes in the rapid development of offshore wind energy.
