The infleuence of offshore wind parks on shipping
Research Project, 2024
The project is a pre-study to develop a method to understand the impact of wind farms on ice formation and what consequences this may have for winter shipping. The project will produce a compilation of the knowledge that exists today regarding the impact of wind farms on ice formation, how this in turn can affect winter shipping, as well as an analysis of planned areas and what effect they may have on shipping and ice breaking in winter in the Baltic Sea.
