Energía eólica marinarelación con la ciudad y el territorio

Abstract

The effects of climate change are transforming the energy sector, which is currently considered one of the most polluting sectors. Therefore, as stipulated in the European Green Pact, it is necessary to promote the development and implementation of renewable energies. This will facilitate the energy transition, ensuring the use of clean and environmentally friendly energies for a climate‐neutral future. This chapter introduces the role of offshore wind energy in the face of inevitable climate change, analyzing its fundamentals and implications in the energy transition process by studying its opportunities and challenges, taking into account the possible socioeconomic and environmental impacts. All this with the main objective of studying in detail the relationship of this type of installations with the city and the territory in view of the evident need to establish an adequate planning and regulation in the face of its growing development.
