Offshore Charging Is Viable, Says New Report by ScottishPower and Oasis Marine

Electrifying Maintenance for Offshore Wind Farms - Pager Power

Electric cars are becoming ever more popular and are making headway in decarbonising transport. In comparison other modes of transportation, such aircraft and boats have seen a slower transition away from fossil fuels. In past articles we have discussed greener fuels for aircraft, and in this, we explore electric boats, specifically in the maintenance of offshore wind farms. Figure 1: Wind Turbines at Sea. [3] The challenge The use of electric b…

Oasis Marine and ScottishPower Support the Transition to Cleaner Offshore Operations - mfame.guru

Offshore charging for electric CTVs and SOVs is technically and operationally feasible, offering a path to decarbonized wind farm operations. Battery-powered vessels could significantly cut greenhouse gas emissions and reduce fuel costs over a wind farm’s lifetime. Oasis Power Buoy technology enables offshore charging while shielding operators from the volatile fuel markets. Industry leaders support the findings, which are being promoted through…
