A 2019 multi-criteria national study by Argin et al. assessed offshore wind energy potential along 55 Turkish coastal regions and identified Bozcaada’s coastline as one of the most suitable locations for offshore wind farm development. Using wind resource data, sea depth, distance to shore and other siting criteria, the study shortlisted Bozcaada among five prime zones and estimated that the specified Turkish offshore sites together could host about 1,629 MW of capacity.
