*Technical potential resource is a term used to describe the energy resource that is extractable with current technology.This is a key to the overlays for the Deca Map, to the best of my knowledge. The following table provides individual links to offshore wind technical potential maps for 56 countries and regions. Shipping traffic is a key constraint and, working in collaboration with the International Monetary Fund, the Program has developed a freely available global dataset on shipping traffic density. Building upon the technical potential analyses, these assessments will include technical, environmental, social, and economic constraints to identify sites that are likely to be most suitable for offshore wind project development. M ore comprehensive assessments of areas for offshore wind development are now in progress. Google Earth Files : Areas suited for fixed and floating wind development, organized by global regions.GIS Shapefiles : Areas suited for fixed and floating wind development, organized by global regions.Table of Results : Fixed and floating wind technical potential estimates for 115 countries.Methodology : Description of the methodology used for the technical potential analysis.Analysis of the world’s offshore wind resources can be found in the following links: Only around 20,000 GW of that total is in shallower waters suited to fixed offshore wind turbines the rest is suited to floating offshore wind. In some cases, maps were generated to demonstrate an absence of any resource.ġ15 of the world’s countries are deemed to have technically extractable offshore wind potential - just over 71,000 GW. Regional maps for the Caribbean Islands, Caspian Sea, and Black Sea were also generated. The table below provides links to individual maps for 56 countries and regions. The same methodology was used to estimate the global technical potential and generate maps for specific World Bank Group client countries and regions with energetic offshore wind resources.
