Solving the energy trilemma
One of the biggest differences for the offshore wind industry in the U.S. compared to European development in the North Sea are some of the physical conditions that offshore wind turbines will sustain. The North Sea has more challenging wind and ...
A Study on Applying Cluster Analysis to Geophysical Data When it comes to offshore wind, we know what it takes to put a plan into action and get the blades turning. Broadly, it involves years of careful planning, data collection, data processi ...
As we celebrate Global Wind Day 2020 in very different circumstances to previous years, it is topical to ask: will the current economic downturn, caused by the coronavirus pandemic, impact the outlook for the wind industry? It is a relevant qu ...
As an industry, we are exceptionally skilled at optimizing energy production of onshore wind farms. But what happens when the wind resource offshore no longer supports our usual tricks of the trade? In this blog, DNV GL explores the energy benefi ...
Transparency, alignment with international standards and a focus on project as well as type certification could encourage international investment and make it easier for Indian manufacturers to succeed in foreign markets. Wind power in India h ...
Ciara, the third storm of the season, battered the shores of the UK last weekend bringing torrential downpours and strong winds, reaching 97mph in some areas. In amongst the stories of flooding, travel disruption and power outages, there was some ...
Traditional uses versus new proposed uses of the ocean -- it's not a new conundrum, but it's taken on new meaning lately for the waters off the U.S. Atlantic Coast. With over 20 GW of offshore wind expected to be installed on the Atlantic Coast betwe ...
With Indonesia and the Philippines still not quite reaching their stride and the leading Thai market hitting a rough patch, wind development in Vietnam looks like storming ahead of the ASEAN pack. It was with this background that market participa ...
Last month we attended the Global Offshore Wind Summit co-organized by the Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) and the European Chamber of Commerce (ECCT) in Taipei, Taiwan. From the turnout, we could safely infer that the Taiwanese offshore market is ...
The cornerstone of any successful offshore wind energy project is a robust assessment of the wind resource and energy yield. Indeed, with increasingly competitive auction driven markets, obtaining a robust and reliable pre-construction energy yie ...
