Med Wind is a planned floating offshore wind farm in the Mediterranean Sea, located in the Strait of Sicily roughly 60-80 km off the coast of Trapani (Sicily) in water depths of 300-600 m. It is designed to comprise up to 190 floating turbines of about 14.7 MW each (total capacity approx. 2.8 GW) and is being developed by the Italian energy company Renexia (Toto Group, via Med Wind Italia SRL). The environmental impact assessment was submitted and reviewed in 2024/2025; press reports put the investment volume at approximately EUR 9.3 billion, with grid connection targeted between the late 2020s and early 2030s depending on the source.
