Chemical emissions from offshore wind farms: From identification to challenges in impact assessment and regulation

Highlights More than 200 compounds that can be emitted from offshore wind farms are listed. Coatings and anodes account for the highest number of potentially released compounds. Lack of occurrence and detailed toxicity data hamper a full risk assessment. Regulations to reduce offshore wind farm chemical emissions are not yet harmonized.
