The gigantic Ossian offshore floating wind turbine array will weigh in at an impressive 3.6 gigawatts when fully built out. It sounds like something that could easily fit anywhere inside the long, long coastlines of the US. However, it will not. Ossian is yet another offshore wind project that will come under the flag of Scotland, which is eyeing an industry-leading total of 15 gigawatts in floating wind in just seven years. Meanwhile, the US has exactly seven wind turbines up and running offshore, and they don’t even float. What’s up with that?
