  • Saipem Secured for Dogger Bank
    WEDNESDAY 22 JULY 2020 SAIPEM SECURED FOR DOGGER BANK Saipem contracted to transport and install two offshore platforms for project’s first two phases Dogger Bank Wind Farm is pleased to welcome Saipem to the world’s largest offshore wind farm project. The project is located more than 130km off the North East coast of England and is made up of three phases: Dogger Bank A, Dogger Bank B and Dogger Bank C. In total, the project will be able to power over 4.5 million homes, contributing significantly towards the UK’s net zero ambition. Saipem will utilize its state-of-the-art heavy lift vessel Saipem 7000 to transport and install two offshore HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) platforms for the first two phases of the offshore wind farm development: Dogger Bank A and Dogger Bank B. Both platforms will consist of a ca. 2,900- tonne jacket and a ca. 8,500-tonne topside. Dogger Bank is the first project to use HVDC technology in the UK’s offshore wind market. Offshore construction at the project will be undertaken in consecutive phases, with onshore construction already underway for Dogger Bank A and B. Steve Wilson, Dogger Bank’s Project Director, said: “We’re really pleased to welcome Saipem to the Dogger Bank Project and look forward to working with them. They have extensive experience in the installation of large offshore platforms which will be essential to ensure the safe and efficient installation of the offshore HVDC platforms for Dogger Bank A and B.” Guido D’Aloisio, Head of Saipem’s newly established Offshore Renewables Business Line commented: “The project with Dogger Bank is a significant endeavour for the UK’s offshore wind industry and we are very pleased to contribute to this strategic development.

With wind and hydro. Part of the FTSE-listed SSE plc, its strategy is to only 30 years to reach Net Zero carbon targets set by governments in the UK and drive the transition to a zero-carbon future through the world around the world, we believe concerted action against climate change is necessary. class development, construction and operation of renewable energy assets. In response, we have redoubled our efforts to create a low carbon world today and work towards a better world of energy tomorrow. We’ve set a goal to treble our SSE Renewables owns nearly 2GW of onshore wind capacity renewable output to 30TWh a year by 2030, which will lower the carbon footprint of with over 1GW under development. Its 1,459MW hydro portfolio electricity production across the UK and Ireland. Potential future projects in the Great includes 300MW of pumped storage and 750MW of flexible hydro. Glen can make significant contributions towards this goal. Its offshore wind portfolio consists of 580MW across three offshore sites, two of which it operates on behalf of its joint venture partners. For SSE Renewables, building more renewable energy projects in the Great Glen is SSE Renewables has the largest offshore wind development about more than just the environment.

  • Irish Renewable Energy Summit 2018 Copy
    Irish Renewable Energy Summit 2020 Transition to a renewables-led energy system Croke Park, Dublin ● Thursday 20th February 2020 In partnership with Sponsored by Organised by Irish Renewable Energy Summit 2020 The major annual conference for the Irish renewables sector To date renewable energy has been focused on the electricity sector with 40 per cent of electricity generated from renewable sources. The Climate Action Plan has an ambitious target of 70 per cent of electricity from renewable sources by 2030. Although there has been less progress made on renewable sources in the heat and transport sectors, both these sectors are central to the Climate Action Plan: there is an ambitious target to electrify mobility with 950,000 electric vehicles by 2030; and an equally ambitious target to deliver 600,000 renewable energy heating sources in homes and 25,000 in commercial premises. The out-workings of the Plan will see a surge in renewable energy development over the next decade. The 2020 Irish Renewable Energy Summit will look at the practical implications of the Climate Action Plan to 2030 and how renewables will develop across electricity, heat and transport. Climate Action Plan With the publication of the Government’s Climate Action Plan, there is now a clear pathway to a low carbon economy in Ireland. Renewable energy is pivotal to the Plan. Ireland will see an acceleration in renewable energy development over the coming decade. Key aspects of the Climate Action Plan include: 4 70% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030; ‘The Plan envisages radical change. 4 An additional 12GW of electricity from renewable sources including onshore and In 2030, we will have 5 times the amount offshore wind, solar and bioenergy by 2030; of renewables on our grid that we have today (requiring capacity to peak at 4 3.5GW of offshore wind based on competitive auctions; 95% electricity generation from 4 400,000 heat pumps to be installed by 2030; renewable sources).

Kyle Martin, LCP Expert information for all those invested in the UK’s energy future REPORT Labour public ownership plan could create hundreds of local energy groups The Labour Party has put forward a programme for a bigger public role in energy supply that includes both national and regional authorities to set policy and could result in hundreds of local energy agencies. It promises, in ‘Bringing Energy Home’, that the change is not a return to “the distant bureaucracies of the 1970s”. The policy will start with a National Energy Agency, set up on the institutional base of National Grid, which will have duties over both decarbonisation and social objectives. It will own and operate the transmission system and will take over some of Ofgem’s functions. It will also be able to borrow to fund system extensions, including owning and operating storage. Regional energy agencies, based on distribution network operators’ areas, will have similar responsibilities within their areas and will also be able to take action over energy efficiency, regional industrial strategy and new infrastructure such as vehicle charging networks.
