Find out how our unrivalled technical capabilities and expertise can support the successful roll-out of floating offshore wind (FLOW) in the Celtic Sea.
Led by the University of Plymouth, the EPSRC-funded Hub is addressing technical, environmental and interdisciplinary challenges through collaboration, cementing the UK's position as a global leader in offshore renewable energy.
The University is leading a feasibility study supported by funding from the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Good Growth Fund
The facility in the University's COAST Lab will be used to test device prototypes before they are deployed in the ocean
Professor Lars Johanning has been invited as International Co-Chair to lead an expert group exploring China’s future use of ocean energy

All-Energy is the largest event in the UK that promotes low-carbon energy and renewable energy supply chains. The main objective of this event is to unite the renewable energy community for two days of uninterrupted business, networking, and creating new connections. The co-located Dcarbonise event is specifically designed for energy end-users in both the private and public sectors.
Addressing the global challenge of climate change needs cross-border efforts. The recent trend of an increase of 1.5°C in global warming needs fast actions from all countries, and initiatives such as the ‘The Forum on Innovative Development of Ocean New Energy in the New Era’ helps to accelerate technology development and inform decision makers. It is an privilege to be invited and to be able to present cross-border experience to accelerate the role out of offshore renewable technologies.
