"Under the Biden-Harris administration, we have made remarkable strides in advancing a clean energy economy, including approving more than 19 gigawatts of offshore wind energy. Our offshore wind energy projects are opening doors to meaningful economic opportunities by generating jobs, boosting economic growth, and fighting climate change."Located ...
EDF Renewables, Enbridge subsidiary EIH, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and Skyborn have inaugurated the 497 MW Fécamp Offshore Wind Farm, located off France’s northern coast. “The successful completion of the Fécamp Offshore Wind Farm marks a significant milestone for Enbridge and our project partners,” says Enbridge’s Matthew Akman. ...
The Biden-Harris administration this week announced the Department of the Interior’s approval of the Sunrise Wind offshore wind project – the nation’s seventh approval of a commercial-scale offshore wind project under President Biden’s leadership. ...
Osbit, the UK-headquartered offshore technology company, has delivered twin wind turbine tower lifting tools to GE Vernova’s Offshore Wind business. ...
The announcement supports the Administration's goal of deploying 30 gigawatts of offshore wind energy capacity by 2030, following the approval of the Vineyard Wind 1, South Fork Wind, Ocean Wind 1, and Revolution Wind projects. ...
In the case of Boswell Springs, we were pleased to learn that the project is eligible for the Energy Community PTC Bonus, and we decided to seize the opportunity to finance the bonus credits to substantially improve the investment economics, over and above associated cost increases.” The procurement of wind turbine generators from GE ...

For Siemens Energy it is the largest offshore grid connection order the company has received to date. "The wind energy industry has repeatedly achieved outstanding technological advances in recent years, be it in the performance of wind turbines or grid connections," said Tim Holt, member of the Managing Board of Siemens Energy. ...
Proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysers can be used both to store energy from wind turbines and solar cells (generating green hydrogen), or in localised hydrogen production to power hydrogen fuelled vehicles. The technology enables the management of high current densities from dynamic energy sources (such as wind ...
The BluWave-ai solution optimizes key elements of the Summerside smart grid: wind turbines, solar panels, diesel generation backup, controllable loads, utility scale storage, and upper-grid connection to an independent local producer of wind energy source. BluWave-ai software continuously samples the electricity network to ...
Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy took a big step towards achieving its stated goal of making wind turbines fully recyclable by 2040 by introducing what is known as the world’s first recyclable commercial turbine blade, the RecyclableBlade. Gregorio Acero, head of Quality Management & Health, Safety, and Environment at Siemens Gamesa ...
Under the award, Equinor and incoming strategic partner bp will provide 1,260 megawatts of offshore wind power from Empire Wind 2, and another 1,230 MW of power from Beacon Wind 1 - adding to the existing commitment to provide New York with 816 MW of renewable power from Empire Wind 1 - totaling 3.3 gigawatts of power to the ...
Each new turbine installed in Europe generates on average €10m of economic activity. ...
In the absence of this opportunity, they would have to back down generation. Likewise, buyers of electricity will offer to purchase. This is particularly useful to electricity distribution companies who may suddenly be faced with a shortage of supply because of, say, a turbine failure at a power plant. ...
This new solar-wind hybrid will provide clean, low cost, locally generated and renewable energy to the Lake Region Electric Cooperative. The hybrid will have a large wind turbine that will help generate clean energy on windy or cloudy days, and solar panels that will generate electricity on sunny ...
The report also analyzes the role of integrated planning, and the importance of long-term, holistic strategies for managing new generation sources on the power grid. Utility master planning is essential to accommodating these changes, meeting local and national regulatory requirements and maintaining reliability. "Change is accelerating across the industry at an unprecedented ...
The large installed capacity of solar and wind-generation plants notwithstanding, generation is intermittent, which translates to the need for a solution that can balance the grid during low wind and solar period. Currently, utilities employ VPP solutions to integrate roof top solar plants, wind ...
Many Scandinavian wind farms face a number of challenges including high levels of turbulence and wind shear from surrounding forestry and the impact of blade icing, and this wind farm was no different, experiencing these effects also. ...
Operations and maintenance inspections on wind turbine generators (WTGs) can be carried out up to four times faster than traditional rope access methods meaning there is very limited downtime required. ...
SgurrEnergy, part of Wood Group’s clean energy business, acted as technical advisor for the investment in Hywind floating offshore wind farm. Located off the coast of Peterhead in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, it is the world’s first multi-turbine floating offshore wind farm. This project is an important milestone between demonstration ...
The Hywind Scotland Pilot Park project, which is projected to be commissioned in 2017, will demonstrate advanced technical solutions on multiple floating wind turbines in a park located 25-30 km off the coast of northern Scotland. ...
