On September 25, 2024, SKF opened the doors of its Hamburg facility to a select group of industry professionals from around the world. The event offered attendees a firsthand look at advanced processes for main shaft repair, wind turbine maintenance, and performance diagnostics, showcasing the latest in turbine care.

National Grid, an energy developer based in Ireland and the UK, is setting its sights on Croatia’s Adriatic Sea. The company is in the early stages of exploring potential sites for offshore wind farms, with a 500 MW project off the coast of Istria County in mind.

In a recent study released by Eoltech, a leader in renewable energy consultancy, it has been affirmed that wind resources globally exhibit high levels of stability and predictability. This insight comes from Eoltech’s detailed analysis over a 15-year period, focused on the global and European onshore wind power portfolios.

Due to their location at sea, offshore projects can be vastly larger and, consequently, generate more power. A prime example is the Star of the South, situated off the coast of Gippsland in Victoria, which is set to become Australia’s most advanced offshore wind farm. But what exactly can we expect from the Star of the South, and how is this ambitious project shaping up?

Lithuania is on a path to build its first offshore wind farm. Ignitis Renewables, a global renewable energy company, has developed an environmental impact assessment program for the project.

The Codling Wind Park project, a collaboration between Fred. Olsen Seawind and EDF Renewables, is set to become one of Ireland’s most significant offshore wind farms. With an expected capacity of up to 1300 MW, it has the potential to supply over one million Irish homes with locally generated, low-cost electricity.
