Offshore wind power is a remarkable form of renewable energy that harnesses the power of wind to generate electricity in the ocean. As of 2023, offshore wind power contributes around 11.2% to the electricity mix in the UK, showcasing its growing importance in the energy sector. In the Unite...
As we move into a blustery autumn here in London, a similar period of change looks to be taking place in the offshore wind industry. The past few weeks have seen a flurry of activity both in the UK and around the world. Dominating the recent headlines has been the UK Governmen...
Pembroke Dock Marine is funded by the UK Government and Welsh Government through the Swansea Bay City Deal, and through the public and private sectors. It is also part funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the Welsh Government. The Offshore Wind Ports Informatio...
Onshore and offshore wind farms supply clean, renewable energy to logistics hubs, warehouses, and transportation networks. The latest innovations in wind turbine technology, such as floating multi-turbine platforms and vertical-axis turbines, have significantly increased the efficiency and output...
namely in developing offshore wind farms and solar energy projects. The United Kingdom's significant offshore wind capacity, which is already among the highest in the world, has led to a 30% decrease in costs over the last 10 years. This has made offshore wind a feasible and competitive ...
Arecent studyfor UKoffshore wind farmsidentified how large arrays are affecting the biological functioning of coastal seas. With growing impacts from a changing climate, we need to ask more nuanced questions. For example, when considering environmental impacts, what baseline should we consider? Will...

The figure is enticing because nearly 80 percent of the population lives in coastal states. In some of the most densely populated areas, particularly in the Northeast, there is not enough space for large onshore wind farms. Offshore wind parks can get much closer to some of these coastal ci...
Ajoint documentary from public broadcastersin Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden last year reported Russia was carrying out alleged undersea intelligence operations around energy cables, as well as offshore wind farms and gas pipelines, in the North Sea and Baltic Sea. ...
