RES

Today’s Autumn Statement reinforces the UK Government’s commitment to decarbonising our electricity system and boosting renewables investment. Initiatives like the National Wealth Fund and GB Energy's first investments are pivotal steps toward a secure, affordable, and renewable-led power system. With our global HQ in the UK, RES is fully committed to driving clean power by 2030, strengthening the communities we operate in, and supporting the UK’s clean energy mission.   Read our full response from Lucy Whitford here: https://lnkd.in/eseg8gWf   #CleanEnergy #UKBudget2024 #Renewables #RES

Norway’s powerful winds, deep waters, and progressive energy policies, including ambitious targets to develop 30GW of offshore wind by 2040, make it a key location for offshore development. Yesterday, our team joined industry leaders and policymakers at the Offshore Wind Conference in Oslo to help shape the future of offshore wind in Norway. One way RES is helping to drive this future is by working with Zephyr AS through our SIRAVIND consortium. Together, we are bidding for a spot in the Utsira Nord offshore wind tender, aiming to deliver 500MW of offshore wind using floating wind technology. Our vision is to create a future where everyone has access to affordable, zero carbon energy. #OffshoreWind #RenewableEnergy #WindEnergy #Norway Terje Aasland Eli Wærum Rognerud

👷Hard hats and hi-vis at Derril Water Solar Park Developed by RES, and sold to Ripple Energy in 2023, the construction of Derril Water Solar Park began earlier in the year and is now progressing at pace. We are pleased to have continued our relationship with the project through an agreement with Ripple to manage the construction and operation of the project, which is due to be commissioned in Spring next year. Located in Pyworthy, Devon, Derril is the UK's first shared ownership solar park, allowing local people and members of the public to own a share the project and save on their electricity bills. When launched, the cooperative scheme exclusively ring-fenced a portion of the project for the local community which enabled local households and even a local school to own shares and be part of the generation and supply of homegrown low-cost clean green energy. Stay tuned for further updates as construction progresses! #PowerForGood #SharedOwnership #SolarEnergy #TogetherWeCan

“Brazil’s goal of tripling renewables will be a fair and inclusive process.” This was the message from Thiago Barral, Brazil’s National Secretary for the Ministério de Minas e Energia, affirming the government’s strong commitment to an energy transition focused on wind and renewable energy. At RES, we’re proud to be part of this journey. This week, our team participated in #BrazilWindPower, a leading renewable energy event in Latin America, to showcase how our asset management, O&M, and digital solutions can enhance asset performance as the region aims to significantly expand its renewable energy capacity. Our team of over 100 people in Brazil combines local expertise with global insight, working from Campinas to unlock value for our customers by ensuring renewable projects are operated and maintained safely, reliably, and efficiently. With the recent addition of Renato Rafael Machado dos Santos as Regional Services Director for Latin America and plans to double our team in Brazil by 2025, we’re deepening our commitment to the region.

What if we could optimize the energy yield of a solar field on a hot day by up to 20% and increase the energy yield of a wind farm by up to 5%?   Mehdi Zohouri, VP of Sales, Digital Solutions at RES, delivered an insightful presentation today at #ETC24, diving into groundbreaking digital solutions shaping the future of #RenewableEnergy.   Learn how digital solutions can help asset owners and service providers enhance the value and sustainability of investments - access more information in comments. #TeamRES #PowerforGood #ElectricityTransformation  Electricity Transformation Canada

Green hydrogen reigniting rural areas🌱 For Ånge municipality in northern Sweden, RES is doing just that through our green hydrogen venture that will have a production capacity of over hundred thousand tons of green hydrogen annually. Swedish trade publication Tidningen Energi, recently visited Ånge alongside Alexandra Angelbratt, Head of Hydrogen in the Nordics for RES, to see how our investment in the area will bring significant benefits to the local economy and community. The future plan for the municipality includes an electro-fuel production plant as well as an industrial park for symbiosis ventures such as as fish farming fueled by the waste heat from the hydrogen production. Alexandra commented: "Building up a close collaboration with the municipality and having a good anchoring in the local community has been a significant success factor in Ånge." 📢 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/dD4iYVMc #GreenHydrogen #Sweden #PowerForGood

Rising up to the challenge – how can digital innovation shape the future of the wind industry? Wind energy is key to achieving a #ZeroCarbon future. Alongside scaling up deployment, we must think smarter, using digital innovation to optimise the global wind fleet. In our latest blog, we explore how data trends from RES’ analysis reveal that two-thirds of turbines often have opportunities for performance enhancements - with pitch (58%) and yaw (38%) mechanisms as the primary focus areas.

We're thrilled to announce that our Elmacık Wind Power Plant (WPP) project in Türkiye has been officially granted its Generation Licence by the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA) - a significant milestone for the project! Located in Kırklareli, this 70MW wind farm will feature 12 turbines and generate 305GWh of clean energy annually. Elmacık WPP will contribute to Türkiye's National Energy Plan, which aims to boost the share of renewable energy to 45.7% by 2026. Additionally, the project will bring substantial local benefits, creating up to 80 jobs during construction and 10 permanent roles once operational.

At the BloombergNEF Summit in London this week, our CEO for EMEA & APAC, Marco Perona, took part in a vital discussion on one of the key challenges facing the energy transition: how to balance the growing demand for renewable energy with the need to protect nature and maintain land for food production.   The panel brought together diverse perspectives from energy, agriculture, and natural capital, emphasising the importance of collaboration across sectors. The path forward involves navigating permitting challenges and working closely with communities to ensure sustainable, nature-positive solutions.   We remain committed to delivering renewable energy projects that not only support the transition but also respect the natural environment and contribute to local economies. By working together, we can unlock the potential of renewable energy and also safeguard biodiversity.
