Development of the first wind energy farms in the Nantucket Shoals region is a valuable opportunity to better understand hydrodynamic impacts of turbines on marine ecosystems. We expect that it will help guide future development of wind farms along the U.S. East Coast. What are the most importan...
Did you know floating windfarms can attract animals foraging for food and shelter? You can read more about this and other effects on biodiversity in floating offshore windfarms in the extensive study below done by Ocean Science consulting on behalf of Equinor.Barrier effects, ghost fishing, and...
GeneralWindfarms TenneT has completed onshore work to connect three offshore wind farms in the IJmond region of North Holland, marking a key milestone in the project to bring renewable energy ashore. Geoquip Marine expands fleet with sustainable vessel conversion ...
WHAT’S BEING DONE TO PROTECT WHALES NEAR WIND FARMS? Federal law sets limits on human-generatedsound underwater for continuous noise and short sudden bursts. Marine construction projects can reduce possible impact on marine mammals, including by pausing construction during migration seasons, using “...
Offshore wind energy is widely regarded as one of the most credible sources for increasing renewable energy production towards a resilient and decarbonised energy supply. However, current expectations for the expansion of energy production from offshore
Aquaculture within offshore wind farms has been identified as one of the many possibilities of smart use of marine space, leading to opportunities for innovative entrepreneurship. Offshore areas potentially pose less conflict with co-users than onshore. At the same time, offshore areas and offshor...
In addition to the higher investment costs, offshore projects have higher generation costs (or life cycle costs) from onshore wind farms. Broadly speaking, the cost of generating energy of a wind power project is the sum of initial investment, O&M costs (split into the fixed maintenance cost...
