🌬️ 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

The plan offers up to 10 GW of new wind energy capacity, enough to power 3 million Danish homes. The first subarea, featuring three wind sites (A1-A3), is now open for bids, with a deadline set for 5 December 2024. This makes it one of the largest offshore wind tenders in the world, with turbines expected to be operational by 2030, significantly boosting Denmark’s green energy transition.

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

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"

Flex2power, the gamechanger in floating offshore wind presented by Flex2future, Norway. Flex2power – a gamechanger within renewable energy production from a floating installation offshore. Harvesting the power of ocean space energy in modular offshore installations with an LCoE equal to 50USD/MW. The idea in the solution is to create more energy from the same floating installation by adding in a Wave Energy Converter – WEC, in addition to the energy produced by the wind turbine. This is achieved by connecting flexible cubes to a Semisub in the center. The additional energy is caused by forces from wind, waves and current on the foundation and transferred into electricity by a system with a DC generator/motor.
