Thebestwindresourcesandabundantsuitableareasforwind
Oneoftheworld’sbestwindresources:TheNorwegiancoast-alareasrankamongtheworld’sfinestlocationsforfloat-

Abundantspaceforwind:Norwayhasoneofthelongest
coastlinesintheworld,andtheNorwegianeconomiczoneandterritorialwaterssprawlacrossmorethan850,000
squarekilometers(excludingareasrelatedtoSvalbardandJanMayen).TheNorwegianWaterResourcesandEnergyDirectorate(NVE)hasidentifiedlow-conflictareaswiththepotentialtohostbetween200and400GWofoffshore

gestedareasoccupymerely6%oftheNorwegianwaters,leaving94%untouched.Thus,itispossibletofacilitate
harmonicco-existencewithfisheries,maritimetraffic,andotheraffectedstakeholderswhileensuringthatnatureandtheenvironmentareproperlysafeguarded.ThisisalignedwithMulticonsult’sestimateofupto338GWoffshore
windpotentialinlow-conflictareas.
Thefjordsareideallysuitedforfloatingwindfactories:
Deep-waterquaysincalmwatersareneededtomanufac-turefloatingfoundations.Onceassembled,theyneed
storageuntilsuitableweatherpermitsoffshoretowingandinstallation.Norwegianfjordsareuniquelysuitedtomeettheseneeds,offeringbothdeep-waterquaysandample
