Ichnusa Wind Power is a project that is planned to be built about 40 kilometres from the southwestern coast of Sardinia. With a capacity of 504 MW, the wind farm is expected to produce enough renewable energy to power 600,000 homes.
According to Divento’s website, the project will comprise 42 floating wind turbines with a power of 12 MW each.
Both initiatives are in the development phase and awaiting the completion of the definition of the regulatory framework for the first auctions for Italian innovative renewable technologies, including floating offshore wind.
“Floating offshore wind can play an important role both for the Italian industry and for the production of safe and renewable energy. We therefore await clarifications on the CfD system for floating offshore wind, which is essential to allow this potential to materialize,” said Kunal Patel , Partner of CIP.
