This is a list of operational, offshore wind farms in Denmark (within the national maritime boundaries). Denmark's wind power generation is the highest in the world as a fraction of domestic consumption, reaching 47% in 2019.
Data is primarily from the 4C Offshore's Global Offshore Wind Farm Map and Database.Offshore Statistics January 2009, European Wind Energy Association, data from 2008.Steve Kopits and Adam Westwood. Offshore Wind: Time for a Market Take-off? Renewable Energy World, 8 October 2009, Table 1. Tariff data is supplied by the Danish Energy Agency."Fremskrivning af PSO-udgifter" page 4. Danish Energy Agency, 19 May 2014. Retrieved: 17 January 2015. The name of the wind farm is the name used by the energy company when referring to the farm, and is usually related to a shoal or the name of the nearest town on shore. The "wind farm" part of the name is implied and hence omitted for ease of reading.
