Environmental and Socio-Economic Impact Assessment of Offshore Wind Energy Projects in India
Offshore wind (OSW) projects are a new source of renewable energy capacity in India’s transition toward cleaner energy. India aims to achieve 37 GW from OSW by 2030. To meet this target, a better understanding of the potential environmental and socio-economic impacts of OSW projects is required. This study summarizes the impacts of OSW projects, highlighting the need for robust environmental and socio-economic impact assessments (ESIA).
