This site-wide search returns results for all documents, events, metadata, and stories in Tethys, prioritizing the best matches. Partial word matches are returned (e.g. "environment" finds "environmental"), but every entered term must be found. If you don't find any results, try reducing the number of words entered or removing special characters. Filters to the right can help narrow your search. Tethys now features an integrated search with other marine renewable energy databases in PRIMRE - click the buttons below "Showing Results for" to search other integrated databases.

Ørsted’s Skipjack Wind will be Maryland’s first offshore wind project off the coast of the Delmarva Peninsula. It will occupy a 24.37 square km lease area, have an installed capacity of 966 megawatts, and power over 300,000 homes in the region. Skipjack Wind is scheduled to be operational in the second quarter of 2026…

Bluepoint Wind
Since the last progress report, Bluepoint Wind has made strides in outreach and thoughtful planning with regards to community stakeholders, fisheries, and agencies. Through consistent meetings and attending information sessions, Bluepoint Wind has remained a resource for external parties. Bluepoint Wind has been working closely with BOEM to guide its communication with Native…

Atlantic Shores is a 50/50 joint venture between EDF-RE Offshore Development, LLC (a wholly owned subsidiary of EDF Renewables, Inc. [EDF Renewables]) and Shell New Energies US LLC (Shell). Atlantic Shores has proposed the development two electrically distinct wind energy projects (Project 1 and Project 2) in Lease Area OCS-A 0499. Collectively these projects are referred to as the Atlantic…

Rovang et al.
Public acceptance of offshore wind development projects is critical to successfully advancing and accelerating the US energy transition. A newly developed geo-data engagement platform has been designed to help operators and regulators manage the rapidly growing volumes of complex geo-data needed to plan, design, and construct offshore wind farms; this same platform can also be used to build…

Hargrave et al.
Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind is developing one of the largest offshore wind energy projects along the U.S. East Coast. Given the large lease area covering 741 km2 and with minimal pre-existing geophysical, geotechnical, environmental, and marine archaeological data availability when the lease was awarded, significant front-end efforts were required to complete project design and…

Peralta et al.
The cyclic soil behavior of North Sea clays and silica sands have been well-documented (Andersen 2004, 2009, etc), and have been used globally to develop soil models and design foundations for structures subjected to cyclic wave loading. The recent development of offshore wind farms within the Atlantic Offshore Continental Shelf (OCS) in the U.S. have prompted the large-scale design of fixed-…

Trandafir et al.
This study presents site-specific CPT-based correlation relationships for preconsolidation pressure, undrained shear strength, relative density and effective friction angle, developed for geotechnical characterization of foundation zone sediments at the Atlantic Shores offshore wind farm development. Results of laboratory geotechnical tests on samples from 49 soil borings performed at the…

Linnerud et al.
Global investments in offshore wind energy are expected to escalate over the coming decades, fueled by improvements in technology, declining costs, and increasing political support. The complexity, scale, and location of these developments make international ownership and export of electricity more feasible. We examine how the general public's acceptance of wind energy will be affected by a…

Varnell et al.
This study illustrates a ground model approach used to characterize the complex site conditions within the Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind Farm Lease Area. The ground model is the result of the integration of geophysical, geological, geotechnical, and benthic (environmental) data to evaluate marine geohazards and summarize seafloor and sub-seafloor conditions. The ground model is provided in a…

Chen et al.
Renewable energy is gaining popularity since it is cheaper and more efficient than conventional energy sources. New green energy technologies, like wind energy, are primarily utilized to maintain ecological sustainability. This study looked at the asymmetric link between wind energy and ecological footprint in the top-10 wind energy-consumer economies (China, USA, India, UK, Germany, Spain,…

Hübner et al.
To foster the green energy transition, local acceptance of wind energy is highly relevant. Since simple solutions like setback distances do not reflect the issue complexity, we incorporated acceptance factors from social science and interdisciplinary research in an Integrated Acceptance Model (IAM). To capture impact differences of the acceptance factors, in Study 1, residents of three…

The wind power industry looks set for a boom following the agreement of the EU's 2009 Renewable Energy Strategy and the introduction of a more sympathetic planning act last year. But the picture across Europe remains inconsistent; although many countries are building wind farms capable of generating hundreds of megawatts of power – in Denmark, nearly one fifth of stationary…

Offshore Wind Energy (OWE) can be considered the Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) with a higher potential of newly installed power in marine areas more the following decades. As a primary phase of the Offshore Wind Farms (OWFs) development, focusing on the long-term Offshore Wind (OW) potential assessment and mapping is necessary to highlight the best areas for turbine generators installations…
