1. Deep Water Offshore Wind Energy By Paul D. Sclavounos Horns Rev Wind Farm (Denmark) - Rated Power 160 MW – Water Depth 10-15m

2. Magnitude of Wind Resource Total World Installed Capacity: 40GW (2003) Total Offshore Installed Wind Capacity: 493 MW Global Annual Electricity Generation from Wind: 67 TWh Wind Energy Sector Annual Growth: 25-30% US Offshore Wind Capacity Total Installed Capacity (2003): 6.4 GW Shallow Water Resource (0-30m): <100 GW Deep Water Resource (30-100m; 20-50 miles):>800 GW

5. Deep Water Offshore Wind Farms Wind Speeds Higher and Less Variable Floating Wind Turbines Water Depths in the range of 30-300m Draw Upon Experience of Oil & Gas Industry Placement of Offshore Wind Farms Near Major Centers Easier Integration to Robust Electric Grids Reduced Visual Effects and Noise
