♻️ Scotland approves 560MW floater Greenvolt Group ♻️ Flotation Energy and Vårgrønn, a joint venture between Plenitude (Eni) and HitecVision, have announced that their 560MW floating offshore wind project Green Volt has been granted offshore planning approval. With onshore consent announced earlier this month, Greenvolt Group has now received all its planning approvals and remains on track to be the first commercial-scale offshore wind farm in Europe When completed, Greenvolt Group will comprise up to 35 floating wind turbines - making it the World’s largest floating wind farm to date. The combined will be capable of producing up to 560MW of low-carbon electricity when it begins operation in 2029. It is estimated the wind farm will save around one million tonnes of carbon each year, while also attracting up to £3 billion in investment and creating hundreds of green jobs. #GreenTech #Renewables #GreenInvestments #OffshoreWind

Haizea Wind Group as we complete the first monopile for ScottishPower Renewables A significant step forward for Haizea Wind Group as they complete the first monopile for ScottishPower Renewables' 1,400 MW East Anglia 3 offshore wind farm. The 74-meter-long, 1,500-tonne structure was produced at their Bilbao facility and is the first of 50 monopiles they are contracted to deliver. This marks a major contribution to one of the UK’s largest renewable energy projects. Additional monopiles will be manufactured by Navantia Seanergies and Windar as they collectively work toward advancing offshore wind and clean energy capacity.

Congratulations to Magallanes Renovables , Nova Innovation , Inyanga Marine Energy Group and the tidal industry at large. At Tadek Ocean Engineering supporting mooring, cable and structural design for tidal energy projects has always been a core passion, since our first project in 2011, delivering installation engineering to the first commercial scale subsea tidal generator, the HS1000. One of our over-riding aims has always been towards developing sustainable installation solutions for a viable, economically robust tidal industry, where these power stations have O&M solutions that properly use and invest in a growing and sustainable local supply chain. Such an approach requires some engineering creativity and engagement with local companies to develop bespoke industry solutions that are regionally feasible and relevant, as opposed to a simple and easy reliance on spot market O&G vessels; that have both high and volatile costs, damaging economic viability, preventing further investment and holding back pioneering projects that should have already succeeded. Government support is great but, like pocket money, it can still be wasted on sugary sweets. #properjob
