Greece's offshore wind project has unveiled its Strategic Environmental Impact Assessment (SEIA) at a special event. The project consists of 25 areas covering 2,712 square kilometers and has a capacity of at least 12.4 GW. Most of these areas are suitable for floating wind technology. The plan identifies 10 areas eligible for development by 2030 to 2032, with a total floating project capacity of approximately 4.9 GW. The list of eligible Organized Development Areas for Offshore Wind Farms (OWF-ODA) includes eastern Crete, southern Rhodes, the central Aegean, the Evia-Chios axis and the Ionian Sea. A study by the Foundation for Economic and Industrial Research (IOBE) found that offshore wind deployment could boost gross domestic product by €1.9 billion per year, increase government revenue by €440 million and support up to 44,400 jobs per year.
