The American Clean Power Association (ACP) supports a first-of-its-kind proposal by Maine and Massachusetts for the Climate Pollution Reduction Grant (CPRG) program.
The three-year initiative unites a diverse consortium of 13 entities from 7 countries, unified by the goal of creating a highly accurate and dynamic digital twin (DT) for offshore wind farms.
Using electricity generated by offshore wind turbines as one pathway to split water to produce clean hydrogen may make economic sense, particularly along the U.S. Atlantic Coast and in the Gulf of Mexico, according to researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
Building on existing marine life protections, Ørsted has developed a new, lower-noise installation method that could potentially revolutionise the way offshore wind foundations are installed.
Jan De Nul has signed a preferred supplier agreement with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) for the installation of about 90km of subsea high-voltage export cables.
Fugro has been awarded a site characterisation contract for a wind farm development off the coast of the Japanese cities of Murakami and Tainai, Niigate Prefecture, Japan.
Germany and the Netherlands have recently issued the results of their latest offshore wind auction. They awarded a total capacity of 6.5 GW. That’s good for Europe’s energy transition. But the auction design in both countries included negative bidding.
The objective of this research project is to reduce the costs associated with the maintenance of floating wind turbines by performing these operations directly at sea.
