Geological model of parameters relevant for offshore wind energy infrastructure in Atlantic Canada / G. Philibert, J. Eamer, E.L. King, and M.Z. Li. : M183-2/9253E-PDF

"The current study focuses on evaluating the suitability of eastern Canada’s continental shelf, including portions of the Scotian Shelf and Newfoundland Shelf. The objective is to identify areas of the shelf where OWE development may be considered and to assess the relevant and available geological data for those areas. This study aims to provide guidance for future site specific and higher-resolution data collection campaigns and studies. It serves as an initial, regional-scale investigation of the geology of Atlantic Canada’s offshore for OWE development and builds upon earlier literature reviews and desktop studies on the topic (Eamer et al., 2023,2021, 2020; MacKillop et al., 2023). In this work, geological criteria are integrated into a regional scale geological suitability model catered to conditions appropriate for three different types of OWE turbine foundations: gravity, pile, and caisson"--Introduction, page 1.
