This wind resource map provides an estimate of mean annual wind speeds (m/s) extending 200 kilometers from shore at a hub height of 100 meters. It is provided under a World Bank Group (WBG) initiative on offshore wind that is funded and led by the
Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP). For more information please visit: https://esmap.org/offshore-wind. The wind resource data is from the Global Wind Atlas (version 3.0), a free, web-based application that provides data with a
100 m resolution based on the latest input datasets and modeling methodologies. For more information please visit: https://globalwindatlas.info.

Map of Australia showing the
location of operating wind
farms. The map indicates areas
of wind speeds (m/second) as
well as transmission lines.
Some of the world's best wind
resources are along the south-
western, southern and south-
eastern margins.
