We’re delighted to highlight one of the key supporters of the UK Offshore Wind Supply Chain Spotlight event: the Offshore Wind Industry Council (OWIC). OWIC was established in 2013 as a joint government-industry forum to drive forward the UK’s renewable energy targets. It brings together industry and government to help realise the UK’s Net Zero ambitions. Building on the 2019 Offshore Wind Sector Deal, OWIC formed OWGP as an independent organisation to support and grow the offshore wind supply chain which it continues to fund to this day. Thanks to OWIC’s support and work with offshore wind developers, OWGP has helped create 1550 new offshore wind sector jobs and awarded over 21m of funding to UK companies. Join the Supply Chain Spotlight conference to hear from companies supported by OWGP’s programmes, and network with leaders and supply chain managers across offshore wind. 📣 Secure your ticket now: https://hubs.la/Q02MS10b0 📅 Conference held in London on 10th December, 2024. reNEWS - Renewable Energy News | #spotlightonsupplychain #supplychain #offshorewind #owic #netzero #renewableevents #windpower

Feel Good Friday! 🎉 We are delighted to share that Energy Transition Zone Ltd has awarded funding to three of our WEST Programme beneficiaries in Aberdeen through the Challenge Fund, as part of The Scottish Government's Just Transition Fund. ITC Hydraulics & Manufacturing Ltd, Innovair and HonuWorx have received a share of £1.47 million in grant support which was split across ten North East Scotland firms to support high-growth potential companies across the energy sector to enter low-carbon markets including offshore wind. Congratulations to all those who benefited from this funding, but a special shout out to our wonderful beneficiaries. We’ve had the pleasure of working with your teams through our tailored business transformation programmes and can honestly say this achievement is well deserved! 👏 #ETZ #OffshoreWind #Aberdeen #NorthEastScotland #Offshore #WindSector #Wind #JustTransition #Funding #Renewables #EnergySector #OffshoreRenewables

Hutchinson was honoured to host the Offshore Wind Growth Partnership (OWGP) for their board meeting yesterday, which included a tour of our facilities. This visit was particularly significant as it allowed our CEO, Dean Drinkwater, to personally demonstrate the tangible improvements and investments we've made thanks to OWGP's sponsorship through the Sharing in Growth Programme. The board had the opportunity to see our technology roadmap in action, including the new £500,000 PEMA Skytrack robotic welding station, which is a key enhancement to our state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities. This visit underscored our shared vision for the future of offshore wind and the ongoing innovation driving our industry forward.

Feel Good Friday 🎉 Congratulations to our company beneficiary Zelim on the successful launch of GUARDIAN! 🚤 We're incredibly proud to have supported the development of this groundbreaking rescue vessel. GUARDIAN’s innovative design and cutting-edge technology mark a major leap forward in maritime safety, and it’s exciting to see it take centre stage at SMM Hamburg. Well done to the Zelim team! 👏 #OffshoreWind #MaritimeTechnology #MaritimeSafety #OWGP #GUARDIAN #OffshoreSafety #Offshore #FeelGoodFriday
GUARDIAN Takes Centre Stage at SMM Hamburg We've officially unveiled GUARDIAN, the world's first unmanned/manned remotely controlled person-in-water rescue vessel at SMM Hamburg. This 8.4m long, 2.5m wide aluminium-hulled Fast Rescue Craft is designed for rapid deployment in challenging maritime conditions. With speeds of over 30 knots and AI-powered detection, GUARDIAN is set to revolutionise maritime safety. Incorporating our type-approved SWIFT rescue conveyor and ZOE intelligent detection software, GUARDIAN can operate in scenarios too dangerous for conventional manned recovery solutions. Special thanks go out to Offshore Wind Growth Partnership who have helped fund the development testing of the Guardian. Their support has been instrumental in bringing this innovative technology to life. Read the full story on our website to learn how GUARDIAN is poised to transform search and rescue operations and significantly improve survival rates in man-overboard incidents. https://lnkd.in/e_bbwDs9 #MaritimeSafety #SMMHamburg #SearchAndRescue #Innovation #Zelim https://lnkd.in/eDG-KzJQ
