The primary aim of the wind farm siting challenge is to assess whether the currently available data on the Mediterranean Sea are appropriate for the preliminary assessment required to identify potential new farm sites. A variety of factors are considered to be important for wind farm siting. These factors include the natural resources data that can be used to define the energy potential of the area and the local climatic characteristics, and the intense anthropogenic activity, biodiversity, and sediment characteristics that may affect the installation of wind turbines in the area of interest. Useful information on the factors that might exert constraints can result in the site being classified as unsuitable for development.
