Plans have already gone forward to the relevant authorities for the first two projects, Messapia offshore Apulia and Krimisa off Calabria.
Messapia, 30 km from the Otranto coast, will have a total capacity of 1.3 GW and will generate about 3.8 TWh annually.
Krimisa, 45 km off the coast of Crotone, will have a capacity of 1.1 GW and annual energy production of up to 3.5 TWh.
