Technical and commercial energy consultancy, Everoze, has launched a free online portal which provides new insights on aging renewables and storage assets in the UK and France. The new site – everozeleaf.com – is designed to allow users to explore the demographics of wind, solar and energy storage a
Keller, a German manufacturer of special gearboxes, in Autumn 2015 received the request from the Chinese dredging company CCCC Shanghai Dredging Co., Ltd. for the modification and upgrade of the cutter drive aboard the cutter suction dredger Xin Hai Kun. The new design required a power increase of u
The application of 3D printing techniques might make it possible to reduce the research and production costs for tidal energy industry.
Vroon will equip its new walk-to-work vessel VOS Start with a Barge Master Gangway. The Barge Master Gangway incorporates an access tower with an elevator, providing step-less access. The adjustable pedestal provides full flexibility in landing heights, Vroon said. “During the development of the gan
The next event in the CEDA webinar series on dredging equipment and technology will be a practitioner-level presentation on ‘Production estimation based on specific energy in sand, clay and rock’ and will take place today, from 14:00-15:00 hrs (CEST). The practitioner-level webinars are for professi
Researchers gathered around the EU-funded Elisa Project have developed an offshore wind turbine system that can be completely pre-assembled and pre-commissioned in controlled harbour conditions. This innovation, the Elisa technology 5MW fully operational prototype, is located in the Canary Islands a
The video shows the installation of Scotrenewables Tidal Power’s SR2000 floating tidal energy device that was conducted last week at EMEC’s grid-connected tidal testing site at the Fall of Warness, Orkney.
Belgian corrosion protection systems designer Elsyca has created a cathodic protection system for the self-installing concrete gravity based wind turbine foundation structures to be used for the first time at the 41.5MW Blyth Offshore Demonstrator Project. Royal BAM Group has been awarded a contract
