In focus: offshore wind in Germany. Industry associations (Bundesverband WindEnergie e.V., BWO - Bundesverband Windenergie Offshore e.V. VDMA, WAB e.V., WindEnergy Network e.V. and Stiftung OFFSHORE-WINDENERGIE) have called for tender designs to pivot toward safe and timely project realisation in their newly released expansion figures - a message that we strongly back. Unlocking Germany's offshore wind pipeline is key to reaching the country's net zero goals. This means moving away from measures such as negative bidding, which add too much financial risk upfront and risk project delays or cancellations. For offshore wind to deliver its full value, we need to focus on project realisation and value creation.    Learn more on https://lnkd.in/dg-j3-se

Attending Floating Wind USA 2023, San Diego, USA. This event aims to bring together project developers, industry experts, and other stakeholders to discuss the latest trends and innovations in the floating wind space. With ambitious goals to install 110 GW of offshore wind by 2050 and 15 GW of floating wind capacity by 2035, the U.S. is setting the scene to inject billions into its green economy. But to really shape the floating wind market, U.S. players need to tackle pressing market challenges such as: high cost and risk, lack of transmission and supply chain, or stakeholder engagement. The California lease sale gives the U.S. a chance to lead the emerging floating wind sector.

Great to see the introduction of an innovative supply chain initiative designed to foster and propel Welsh businesses interested in seizing forthcoming prospects within the offshore floating wind industry. https://lnkd.in/epnv-X_5

“Scale remains the big determinant for #floatingwind power. It is one the main factors in getting lower costs.

Oh dear! Another blow for Norway's 1.5GW Sørlige Nordsjø offshore wind tender as EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG has said its subsidiary Norseman Wind AS won't bid due to problems with the regulatory regime. The company was named as one of five pre-qualified bidders last month, but has now said it will not bid in the tender on 18th March because of concerns about the need to build and own the high-voltage interconnector; and limits on state support. This echoes concerns voiced by fellow pre-qualified bidder Shell last month. The silver lining is this indicates EnBW is showing cost discipline in its bids, and ruling out those where it doesn't feel it can make the numbers work. The firm also said it is still committed to the Norwegian market. But we can't ignore the fact that this silver lining comes with a massive cloud. This means the number of engaged pre-qualified bidders in this tender now potentially stands at just three (if we assume Shell won't be bidding), which is looking a little threadbare. We announced those pre-qualified bidders here on 16th February: https://lnkd.in/eVWJwjde There may be more twists and turns here before final bids are even submitted.

1.56 GW is a huge capacity for Estonia. Should be able to produce around 3/4 of current national electricity demand (8 TWh)! But there are interconnectors as well, of course.
