During the review process, national administrations were also asked to provide<br />

approximate locations of new conventional and renewable generation (RES), especially new<br />

offshore capacity and also, to the extent available, possible landing points. Furthermore,<br />

potential environmental or other constraints for development were described where<br />

possible.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Reference Scenario was fixed in summer 2011; it therefore does not take account of<br />

later changes regarding future energy mix made since that time.<br />

<strong>The</strong> locations of the new offshore wind power plants (OWPP) contained in the Reference<br />

Scenario are represented by blue dots on the map in Figure 3-1: the size of the dot<br />

representing the capacity of wind generation at the location. For clarity, the wind parks<br />

assumed to exist by 2020 are shown by grey dots.<br />

Figure 3-1 Assumed Location of <strong>Offshore</strong> Wind Power Plants (OWPP) by 2030 (due to readability reasons<br />

the scale in the legend does not match the map)<br />
