Whilst sustainable energy is increasing in popularity, there is still some resistance from the general public who don't want to see wind turbines in their local communities. That's why offshore wind farms and underwater turbines are growth hotspots, with over 1,000 MW installed in 2010 in the UK.
When compared to onshore projects, offshore windfarms are more productive as wind speeds are more consistent out at sea. Also, turbines on the seabed harness the energy from an otherwise unused resource.
The renewables industry is a tight community and generally projects will involve multiple organisations working together to share their expertise and make the project a success. We already work with the industry's leading OEMs and have an extensive network of smaller companies that work together to support the industry. These connections give us a huge advantage in sourcing skilled talent for offshore and subsea renewable energy projects.
