2024 Offshore Backcast by UL Solutions

UL Solutions has been engaged in offshore wind resource and energy assessment for many years, including experience with some of the earliest commercial wind projects in Europe and North America. Our methods for offshore wind resource and energy assessment have largely been derived from extensive experience with onshore wind including adaptations tailored for the offshore environment, but these methods have not been validated until now.

While the main objective of the 2024 Offshore Backcast is to validate bankable P50 energy estimates for UL Solutions, it also serves to establish a common method for pre-construction offshore wind energy analysis.
