The Wind Farms - Areas of Search indicate areas of interest for wind farm development previously identified by stakeholders.
This layer is for information purposes only; it can help deciding which areas to give preference when planning for new wind parks.
This puts no pressure on the ecosystem.

In the North Sea Digitwin Edition, the areas where there is identified interest to develop wind farms, are called "Wind Farms - Designated Areas".
This data layer is based on the data layer from the North Sea Edition but with updated data for the Netherlands EEZ using data from Rijkswaterstaat. Last update was carried on 2021/06.
In the Baltic Sea the potential areas for wind farm development are called "Potential Wind Farms (RI.SE)".
The Potential Wind Farms (RI.SE) are areas with potential for wind energy production in the Baltic Sea, according to Baltic LINes project output provided directly by the project's partners (SwAM, RI.SE). For more info see the full report here).
The types reflect the year the wind farms would be implemented.
