📣 Proposed 24MW wind farm begins initial wind and noise assessments 📣 We have been working with the renewable energy developer Green Switch Capital now part of the Qair Group, to conduct wind and noise assessments for 12 months at the proposed Monashee Wind Farm between Grantshouse and Duns, Scotland. 🌬 The recent deployment of a ZX 300 #Lidar and noise monitoring equipment allows for the first studies to be carried out quickly and easily with no significant impact on the local area. ➡ “Working with Scottish-based ZX Measurement Services, we have managed to quickly and easily install the necessary equipment that will help to confirm the feasibility of Monashee Wind Farm for the landowner, and Green Switch Capital, now part of Qair. Based on the outcome of studies such as this, we can continue our work with farmers and landowners to unlock the lease value of their land, giving them a predictable, guaranteed income for the entire lifecycle of the project.” Pete McLaren, Green Switch Capital Read the full article here 👇 https://lnkd.in/e94N-TWu Ian Ravey Joanna Cadman-Goodwin #windmeasurements #lidar #windenergy #renewableenergy #windfarmdevelopment

💨 Have you heard of Seagreen, Scotland's largest offshore wind farm? 🏴 📍 Located 27 km off the coast of Angus, the Seagreen offshore wind farm has been generating clean electricity since August 2022, with all 114 turbines now fully operational since October 2023. 🏘 This project goes beyond numbers - it signifies a significant impact. With enough energy to power over 1.6 million homes, equivalent to two-thirds of all Scottish households. ⚡️ Additionally, the electricity generated will prevent the emission of over 2 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually. 💡But that's not all - Seagreen is also the world's deepest fixed-bottom wind farm!

🌊💨 Major News: Bristol Port Company Joins the Floating Wind Revolution! Exciting announcement from The Bristol Port Company about their new deep water terminal at Avonmouth Docks for floating wind production. From CLS Wind's perspective, we see immense potential for collaboration here! Key Points: • New facility operational by 2030 • Supporting 3 major wind farms in Celtic Sea • Initial 4.5GW capacity, with potential to quadruple • Full assembly and deployment capabilities How CLS Wind Could Supercharge This Development: 1️⃣ Port Infrastructure: • Reduce required port infrastructure by up to 70% • Enable more efficient use of available space • Minimize quayside reinforcement needs 2️⃣ Installation Efficiency: • Cut installation costs by up to 50% • Speed up project timelines significantly • Enable use of smaller, more readily available vessels 3️⃣ Local Content: • Support Bristol's local supply chain development • Enable use of regional vessels and workforce • Reduce dependency on scarce specialized equipment This is exactly the kind of development the UK's floating wind sector needs. With CLS Wind's innovative lifting system, we could help The Bristol Port Company maximize efficiency and minimize costs in their floating wind operations. Let's connect and explore how we can help make Bristol a powerhouse in floating offshore wind! 💪🌍 #FloatingOffshoreWind #BristolPort #Innovation #CLSWind #CelticSea #RenewableEnergy #cSolutions
Bristol Port Company to help construct floating wind farms The Bristol Port Company Port Company has announced it will be producing, assembling and deploying floating wind turbines in a new deep water terminal at Avonmouth Docks. Set to be fully operational by 2030, the project will support the construction of three huge wind farms off the South West and South Wales coastlines. The initial three wind farms will generate 4.5 gigawatts of renewable energy, which will nearly quadruple in future with the creation of more in the Celtic Sea. The facility will be capable of handling the assembly or manufacture of sub-structure bases; integration of the towers, blades and nacelles; and deployment of the completed, floating structures to deep water sites. https://lnkd.in/e7xeZRgC #ports #offshorewind #flow #ISeaSMEs #socsea #maritimeconnection Celtic Sea Power Celtic Freeport

🚀 Exciting Development in Renewable Energy! The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) has just issued a research lease for a 144MW floating wind array to the State of Maine. 🌊 This monumental step forward in renewable energy will see the installation of 12 floating offshore wind turbines, poised to generate a substantial amount of green power. This research array will serve as a collaborative platform for stakeholders including fishermen, wildlife experts, and the offshore wind industry. By enabling in-depth studies and evaluations, we'll gain valuable insights into how floating offshore wind can integrate with existing ocean uses and its broader impacts on the environment, supply chains, and local job creation. Its great to see advancements like these in the renewable energy sector. 🌍🔋⚡ #RenewableEnergy #OffshoreWind #SustainableFuture

Avangrid and CIP Achieve Milestone with Vineyard Wind 1 Offshore Wind Project Avangrid, Inc., a leading sustainable energy company and part of the Iberdrola Group and Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP), has announced a major Vineyard Wind 1 project milestone. Located off the coast of Massachusetts, Vineyard Wind 1 is now delivering over 136 MW of clean energy to the local grid, making it the largest operating offshore wind project in the United States. The project is expected to create 3,600 FTE job years, save customers $1.4 billion over 20 years, and cut carbon emissions by 1.6 million metric tons annually—equivalent to removing 325,000 cars from the road each year.

With Keir Starmer’s recent visit to a #WindFarm in #Wales, the spotlight is on #RenewableEnergy. We’d like to take this opportunity to renew calls for the #Government to lift restrictive planning regulations on small-scale #WindTurbines. Currently, these #turbines are limited to a height of just 11.1m - below the tree line - severely limiting their #efficiency and #energy generating potential. Alongside #WindTechnology experts, we’re advocating for the height limit to be raised to 30m, which would dramatically enhance their effectiveness. David Cowdrey, our Acting Chief Executive, emphasises, “While large-scale wind is crucial, we must not overlook the potential of small-scale wind turbines to provide affordable, #CleanEnergy to #rural communities and #businesses, particularly #farmers. These turbines are cost-effective, unobtrusive, and can play a significant role in our energy future - if we lift unnecessary barriers.” By raising the height restrictions and allowing for permitted development, we can empower rural communities to harness renewable energy from wind, contributing to a cleaner, greener future for all. It’s time for the new Government to take action and unleash the full potential of small-scale wind. https://lnkd.in/eX-J2MXX

The V&A Waterfront, together with German manufacturer LuvSide GmbH, have installed small wind turbines which form part of a pilot project of the Renewable Energy Solutions Programme (RES Programme) of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action’s German Energy Solutions initiative. The small wind turbines offer an environmentally friendly and low-noise way of compensating for power outages. The innovative technology is not only quiet but also aesthetically pleasing. The four installed LS Double Helix 1.0 turbines offer an energy yield of several thousand kWh per year, depending on the wind power. The V&A Waterfront is LuvSide GmbH's first reference plant in SA. #windturbines #windpower #capetownproperty #renewablenergy #commercialrealestate #propertyowners #landlords #energyefficiency #innovativetechnology #shoppingcentre #mixeduseprecinct #environment #realestateinvestment #vandawaterfront
