The key to reaching our goal is understanding the challenges we face. None of these are new, but they are now more pressing. The energy sector is facing a retirement crunch, competition from other sectors.
We must retain and retrain our talent, use the race to net zero as a motivator to attract the best and the brightest, and further expand.
We need to foster collaboration between industry partners, government, regulators, trade unions, NGOs, education institutions and campaigning groups. Only by working in partnership, on our shared ambition.
Developments in AI and ML can be game-changers in the collective race to ramp up production across the entire value chain.
AI technologies are already being deployed across the wind power project lifecycle: from providing the ability to analyze very large amounts of data for more effective site selection.
Generating virtual models during project design phases – to enabling better analysis of installation logistics in order to reduce costs
Onshore wind power isn't as dependable or predictable as offshore wind power.
Before land is bought or rented for the construction of a wind farm to make clean energy, the terrain and wind currents that the terrain is exposed to must be carefully studied.
Setting up onshore wind farms is much cheaper than offshore farms.
Maintenance on offshore farms has to be done by helicopters and boats that can go out into the ocean, which is more expensive than land-based options.
There's plenty of space available in the ocean, and offshore farms have fewer difficulties with wind power and availability.
To build an offshore wind farm, you will need platforms, underwater cables, interconnection, and additional safety features.
Offshore wind turbines are more efficient.
Reduced environmental impact
More space to construct in
Higher cost per MW
Maintenance and repairs
Less local involvement
Lesser power generation
Reduced environmental impact
Cost effective
Quicker installation and easier maintenance.
Job creation
Changing wind speeds
No wind or intermittent generation
Effects on people and nature
Lesser power generation
All wind turbines are built with pretty much the same materials no matter where they are constructed.
Offshore wind power refers to wind farms built on shallow bodies of water, usually in the ocean.
Onshore wind power refers to wind turbines constructed and situated on land.
Our meteorological data gives wind speed at 10 meters above the ground, but our turbine power curves consider wind speeds at hub height, which could be anywhere from 40 to 160 meters off the ground, where wind speeds are higher.
We therefore extrapolate to determine wind speed at turbine hub height.
We use power curves to relate wind

Controller of the Turbine System The controller allows the machine to start at wind speeds of about 7–11 miles per hour (mph) and shuts off the machine when wind speeds exceed 55–65 mph. The controller turns off the turbine at higher wind speeds to avoid damage to different parts of the turbine. Think of the controller as the nervous system of the turbine.
Electrical Components of a Wind Turbine
Power Curves We use power curves to relate wind speed and power output. Rated power: the maximum power output of the turbine under ideal conditions Cut-in speed: the wind speed below which the turbine generates no power Rated output speed: the wind speed above which the turbine generates its maximum rated power. Cut-out speed: the wind speed above which the turbine shuts down generation to prevent unsafe operation and damage.
Wind speed extrapolation Our meteorological data gives wind speed at 10 meters above the ground, but our turbine power curves consider wind speeds at hub height, which could be anywhere from 40 to 160 meters off the ground, where wind speeds are higher. We therefore extrapolate to determine wind speed at turbine hub height.
