Abstract

Offshore wind power is a frontier field of wind power technology, which is actively promoted by the countries all over the world. At present, UK offshore wind power takes the lead in the world, establishing mature offshore wind power management systems and procedures, and then provides references for China’s offshore wind power management. Through the comparative analysis of the UK and China’s offshore wind developing situations, policies and regulations, project case and offshore wind farm planning, decision making report and so on, this article summarized the differences and similarities between the UK and China’s offshore wind management policies, procedures, site requirements, environmental impact assessment and public participation ways. And connecting with the differences between the two countries to offers a few suggestions for China’s offshore wind management: a. Offshore wind application should be pay more attention to public participation. b. Establishing offshore wind communication and research platform. c. Developing specialized, perfect, definite standards. d. Strengthening human environmental impact study in the early stage of the plan. e. Simplifying the application process.
