Wind
We have wind power interests in several countries, including onshore in the USA and off the coasts of the USA and the Netherlands. We are expanding our wind power activities to make more renewable electricity available to our customers. This includes developing wind projects on floating platforms in deeper waters off the coasts of Ireland, Scotland, France, Norway and South Korea.
At the end of 2021, the Shell share of total installed capacity combined from onshore and offshore wind was 466 megawatts alternating current (MWac), with a further Shell share of 838 MWac under construction.
