Wind

We have wind power interests in operation, under construction or under development in several countries, including onshore in the Netherlands and the USA and off the coasts of the Netherlands, Norway, South Korea and the USA.

In 2022, we extended our onshore wind power activities into Australia and the Philippines. We also won bids with our partners to build four offshore wind farms in the Netherlands, the UK and the USA, which together have the potential to generate around 7.3 gigawatts of power (Shell’s share 3.75 gigawatts).

At the end of 2022, Shell’s share of total installed capacity from onshore and offshore wind was 307 megawatts alternating current (MWac), with a further Shell share of 789 MWac under construction. This is 160 MWac less than in 2021 due to the temporary shutdown of our Brazos onshore wind farm in Texas for refurbishment and to increase its generating capacity to 182 MWac.
