🌬️ Selecting the Perfect Sites for Offshore Wind Farms 🌊 In our quest to expand renewable energy in Italy, we meticulously selected potential offshore wind farm sites based on several critical criteria: 1) Located within Italian territory and offshore 2) Outside protected areas 3) Water depths between 50-150 meters 4) Average wind speeds exceeding 7.5 m/s Our study identified five optimal locations for offshore wind farms in Italy, each evaluated for cost, capacity, and feasibility. These sites are projected to significantly enhance Italy's renewable energy mix. #GreenEnergy #ClimateAction #EnergyTransition #GIS

Norway is advancing its first-ever "wall of turbines" project, supported by a 1.2 billion kroner (US$107 million) grant from Enova. Developed by Wind Catching Systems (WCS), the project will feature 40 one-megawatt turbines at a demonstration site northwest of Bergen, in Øygarden, generating 99 GWh of energy annually. Set for completion by 2029, this project is part of Norway’s initiative to make floating offshore wind energy more efficient and affordable, with plans for 30 GW of offshore wind energy by 2040. #Norway #WindEnergy #OffshoreWind #RenewableEnergy #FloatingTurbines #WindCatchingSystems #ClimateAction #WindPower #OffshoreWindFarm

A very well written article on the origins of Offshore Wind in parallel to the development of Motion Compensated Gangways. #offshorewind #ampelmann #offshore

So proud to be part of this project, transforming the world. I only need one line of this article to be amazed of the magnitudes of what we are all doing todether: "One rotation of the SG14-236 powers a household for 3 days"

🤔 What would be the best analogy for brokering innovation? Is it like playing the matchmaker between problems and solutions? Is it like solving a crossword, where you look for the correct word? Or is it like solving a puzzle…you search for the missing piece to complete the picture. Maybe sometimes is to set up the table, provide a nice environment and encourage others to sit around, learn from each other, and cooperate. #ADRIONWIND soon starts, offering SMEs in the #wind sector tailored programmes for capacity building and knowledge transfer. A new Interreg IPA ADRION Programme is about to kick-off in #Zagreb, under the coordination of University of Zagreb, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture #windenergy #offshorewind #REs #renewables #innovation #Interreg

Our CEO, Stephen Bull OBE, will deliver the opening keynote at the Stavanger Energy Conference hosted Universitetet i Stavanger (UiS) today. Offshore wind holds great potential for building significant expertise and capacity within Norway’s offshore and maritime industries. By investing in floating offshore wind, Norway not only strengthens its energy portfolio but also plays a pivotal role in the global energy transition, positioning itself as a leader in the renewable energy sector. Floating offshore wind, in particular, could unlock a tremendous renewable energy potential on a global scale by tapping into stronger wind resources further from shore. The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that the potential could be more than 10 times the world’s current electricity demand. Floating wind technology could truly be a game-changer for the global energy landscape. We look forward to engaging discussions and insightful panel sessions throughout the day. #offshorewind #floatingwind #event
