Offshore wind farms are built to generate renewable electricity, but their interaction with marine ecosystems is receiving increasing attention. Research at Teesside Offshore Wind Farm suggests that infrastructure installed primarily to protect turbine foundations could also provide habitat for mari...

For decades, reducing the levelised cost of electricity (LCoE) from wind has largely meant building taller towers and longer blades. Chanan Herbet, Founder and CTO of SKYREED, argues that the physical and logistical limits of this approach are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.

Wind technology companies may have strong engineering, but technical performance alone does not guarantee that a project will move forward. For Weather Guard Lightning Tech, the missing part of the equation is often the asset manager, who must turn technical recommendations into investment decisions...

With investment under pressure across the wind industry, asset owners are paying closer attention to the performance of turbines already in operation. For Andreas Berg Nielsen, CEO of Windar Photonics, the opportunity lies not only in adding new capacity, but in extracting more value from the existi...

Shipping faces growing pressure to reduce emissions as international and European regulations tighten. Wind-assisted ship propulsion (WASP) offers one near-term response, but performance can vary significantly because wind close to sea level is turbulent and affected by waves, thermal gradients and ...

As offshore wind farms move further from shore and sea conditions grow increasingly hostile, ensuring safe and efficient technician transfers from crew transfer vessels, CTVs, to fixed monopiles has become a critical operational priority. Traditional mooring and fender solutions have long represente...
