Tóm tắt

 The development of an offshore wind resource database is one of the first steps necessary to understand the magnitude of the resource and to plan the distribution and development of future offshore wind power facilities. The U.S. Department of Energy supported the production of offshore wind resource maps and potential estimates for much of the United States. This presentation discusses NREL's2010 offshore wind resources report
  current U.S., regional, and state offshore maps
  methodology for the wind mapping and validation
  wind potential estimates
  the Geographic Information Systems database
  and future work and conclusions.
