🌊 At SolarinBlue, we believe the real challenge begins after the installation is complete. Now that we’ve mastered the construction phase, it's time to focus on optimizing the operations and maintenance of offshore energy assets. 🔧 That's why we’re proud to be part of the #STORM project, led by France Énergies Marines. Together with key players like Atlantique Offshore Energy, BlueTwin, INNOSEA, OCEANIDE, RTE, and Nantes Université, we are developing cutting-edge tools to assess reliability and optimize maintainability for floating offshore wind farms. 🌬️💡 Key challenges and solutions we’re addressing include: 1️⃣ Optimal Planning for Offshore Operations 2️⃣ Heavy Maintenance at Sea 3️⃣ Monitoring During Operations By harnessing our expertise and the funding support from the #France2030 plan through the ANR, the French National Research Agency we are ensuring that offshore energy remains a sustainable, high-performance solution for the future. 🔎 Learn more about how we’re driving innovation in O&M: https://lnkd.in/eRukGKfu #OffshoreEnergy #O&M #FloatingWind #Maintenance #Innovation #SolarinBlue #France2030 #OffshoreSolar

EDF Renewables and its partners announce that the first wind turbine at the Provence Grand Large floating offshore wind farm is injecting megawatt-hours into the national electricity grid. Eventually, the park will produce the equivalent of the annual electricity consumption of 45,000 inhabitants. Exciting times! #floatingwind #offshorewind #windenergy

🇫🇷 Local businesses in the Pays de la Lorie are expressing apprehensions ahead of tomorrow's announcement of the winner of the #AO5 #CfD. According to local news sources, there's unease among several companies in the marine wind sector regarding the potential impact of the winning candidate on the local industry. The name most frequently mentioned is OW Ocean Winds, which is already established in the #YeuNoirmoutier Park. Speaking anonymously, one industry insider commented, "This consortium has already inked a deal with Navantia, S.A., S.M.E to produce #floatingfoundations in #Spain. This suggests that the government prioritized cost over local employment. It will be hard for us to applaud the winner." Another professional voiced concerns, asking, "If the wind #turbines also come from China, what message does that send to the local economy?" These worries find support from Neopolia, a coalition of over 200 companies, 90 of which operate in Marine Renewables (#EMR). Vice-President Aymeric Foucher recently expressed disappointment over the lack of bids for the new wind park, stating, "[there were] very few inquiries for this project." While acknowledging that the best-suited company should win the contract, he emphasized the importance of consulting local stakeholders. Foucher noted the irony of seeing the Nantes-Saint Nazaire Port assembly site ready but lacking local involvement. Despite these concerns, recent advancements in #floatingoffshorewind could reshape the project's landscape. More companies are recognizing the significance of #modularity for industrialization and local SME participation. Strategies for “all-or-nothing scope” like those historically pursued by #Navantia might prompt the government to prioritize both cost efficiency and higher local content, potentially benefiting companies such as RWE and EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg AG who already have a strong presence in France. Overall, all parties are optimistic that the wait will soon be over! #BretagneSud #Eoliennesenmer #Offshorewind #auction #Brest #CdA

Interesting read for understanding some further differences between the 6 A05 bids 💨🌊🇫🇷. From a WTG+floater+anchoring point of view, Pennavel considered 24MW WTGs, concrete semisubmersibles and drag anchors. To note though that objectives may be achieved with less powerful WTGs (min 18.7MW) for the maximum number of floaters (13). Other bidders proposed drilled and grouted anchor piles (20 to 44 piles depending on geometry assumptions and/or anchor sharing) with steel semisubmersible floater (4 bidders; 20-22.5MW WTG) and concrete barge-type floater (1 bidder; 20.7MW WTG).
