Floating WInd

With this week's: ScotWind announcements encompassing over 15 GW of floating wind, I thought the community may welcome another chance to listen to the Astute podcast.

Episode Description

In this episode we look specifically at floating wind. The term 'game-changer' is one which is vastly over-used in the clean energy sector, but are floating wind turbines worthy of that tag? Will they open up entirely new project locations compared to fixed foundations, or will they start to compete in areas where fixed solutions have thus far ruled? Will they open up entirely new offshore energy applications, beyond those possible with today's technology? And, crucially, how far away are they and what are the practical hurdles which could slow down their implementation?

We address all these questions and more, in one of our most forward-looking and thought-provoking podcasts to date!
