re: Offshore Wind

Here's some Capacity Factor data for existing Offshore Wind installations
Thought it might be of interest ..

energynumbers.info

Danish Offshore Wind
energynumbers.info

UK Offshore Wind
energynumbers.info

German Offshore Wind

energynumbers.info

Danish Offshore Wind Farm "Vindeby" which was decommissioned in Feb 2017
had a 22% Capacity factor over a 25 year in service life span ..

So, if I'm understanding the data correctly if you want 100 MW reliably you
need to install 400 MW to 500 MW in nameplate in order to get it ??
