Question

Offshore wind turbines are more efficient compared to onland wind turbines. Which statement best describes the advantage of using offshore wind turbines than onland wind turbines? A Offshore wind turbines use more water compared to onland wind turbines. B Offshore wind turbines need more space compared to onland wind turbines C Offshore wind turbines contributes to carbon emissions compared to onland wind power turbines D Offshore wind turbines have more consistent wind power and speed compared to onland wind turbines.

Answer 1

The statement that best describes the advantage of using offshore wind turbines compared to onland wind turbines is:

D Offshore wind turbines have more consistent wind power and speed compared to onland wind turbines.

Offshore wind sites generally benefit from stronger and more consistent winds, which can lead to higher energy production efficiency compared to onland sites.
