Wind power – especially offshore wind power – is a low-carbon and naturally renewable solution, meaning that it has a particularly bright future for driving the energy transition.

TotalEnergies is harnessing its long-standing and recognized expertise in managing major offshore projects to ramp up its ventures in this sector. Today, we are one of the key players in offshore wind power.

Since 2020, we have been stepping up our investments in offshore wind power, mainly across Europe (Germany, United Kingdom and France), North America (USA) and Asia (South Korea and Taiwan). We are developing a portfolio of projects with a total capacity of over 13 GW, most of which are fixed-bottom installations.

Located 27 km off the coast of Angus, Seagreen is currently Scotland's largest offshore wind farm and the world's deepest fixed-bottom wind farm, since it has been developed in 59 meters of water depth. All the turbines have been commissioned since October 2023, making Seagreen our first operational offshore wind farm in the North Sea.

Swept by gale-force winds, the North Sea is recognized as one of the most dynamic regions in the world for developing offshore wind activities. The development of offshore wind projects is one of the main ways for Scotland to lead its energy transition plans and achieve its goal of net zero emissions by 2045^*. Ultimately, Seagreen will prevent over 2 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions every year.
