Ossian Wind Farm

Ossian will be one of the largest floating offshore wind farms in the world, and is a joint venture between SSE Renewables, Marubeni Corporation and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners. 🌍 Its scale and floating technology make it a game changer in the UK renewable energy sector and a critical driving force behind the journey to #NetZero, offsetting up to 7.5m tonnes of carbon emissions. Follow our page for updates on our quest for #NetZero on an epic scale. #Ossian

With a site covering 858km², Ossian will be one of the largest floating offshore wind farms in the world—bigger than Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen city centres combined. 📍 Once complete, Ossian will play a crucial role in delivering green energy and helping meet net zero targets. 🌱 #OssianWindFarm #OffshoreWind #NetZero

New research reveals that Scotland now boasts three times as many green jobs as in 2021. Project’s such as Ossian are ideally suited to build on the progress to date to maximise the opportunities for Scotland’s workforce and support a just transition. #RenewableEnergy #OffshoreWind #GreenCareers

Earlier this week, Ossian's lead procurement and commercial manager David Paterson and project engineer Grant Beaton attended the Scottish Enterprise event on Developing Manufacturing Competitiveness in the Scottish OSW Supply Chain, gaining valuable insights into the manufacturing processes to be successful in offshore wind.   Important discussions took place on competitive supply chains for the offshore wind industry, focussing on automated welding from TPS WeldTech Ltd and digitalisation and productivity from the National Manufacturing Institute Scotland. 🖥️   The development of manufacturing technology within the industry will be key to driving more efficiency in the manufacturing and fabrication, as well as helping projects like Ossian to support local content. #ManufacturingProcess #RenewableEnergy #SupplyChain

Significant progress has been made on the Ossian floating offshore wind project to ensure rapid delivery in response to the climate emergency. 📈 Key milestones achieved so far include: 📊 Completion of a 12-month Metocean data gathering campaign 🐦 24 months of site-specific bird and marine mammal digital aerial surveys 📝 Submission of the consent application for the offshore array 📊 Completion of the preliminary geophysical and geotechnial surveys at the offshore array These developments mark important steps toward delivering a greener, more sustainable future.

Last week Ossian's supply chain plan manager Katie Black attended the Sustainable Scotland Series: Green Skills and Energy Transition at The Scotsman Green Skills Conference to gain valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities in building a skilled workforce for the energy sector. 👷 One of the many highlights was hearing from St Machar Academy pupils in the Girls in Energy initiative, sharing their experiences in overcoming barriers to careers in energy. The optimism among panelists was inspiring and showed the true appetite for development in the industry. 💡 It was also encouraging to hear Dr. Su Bryan, dean of the faculty of science, health and the environment at UHI, discuss the success of the STEM Outreach programme, proudly supported by Ossian, which continues to engage young students across Scotland. 🤝 #GreenSkillsConference #EnergyTransition #STEMCareers

Today is the first day of COP29. Political and industry leaders from across the world will be gathering in Azerbaijan until Friday 22 November to support the global response to the ongoing climate change crisis. 🌎 The fixed objective is to avoid overshooting the 1.5°C temperature target. With the window of opportunity closing, it is essential that we make the changes today to save tomorrow. 👏 You can read more about the 2023 highlights here: https://lnkd.in/eeBhDszD #COP29 #NatureNow #NetZero

This week, Ossian’s stakeholder engagement manager, Lisa Di Mambro-Fitzpatrick had the privilege of attending and presenting at her first Offshore Wind North East Event.   The North East’s industrial heritage, combined with huge capabilities makes the region well placed to drive the growth of offshore wind.   A highlight of the event was hearing from apprentices Tom Beezer and Erin Collings, who shared their journeys with SMD. Their passion and dedication really showcased the importance of nurturing future talent in the industry.   The event also emphasised the need for early engagement with the supply chain to ensure the success of upcoming projects. Collaboration from the outset leads to more efficient and sustainable solutions.   Finally, a shout out to the Energi Coast Cluster for its critical role in supporting global offshore wind projects.   Thanks to NOF and everyone involved for such an engaging and valuable event. #Offshorewind #Northeast #Renewableenergy #FutureTalent #Supplychain #Innovation
