𝐉𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐎𝐟𝐟𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 James Aiken Engineering Solutions designed and constructed a set of robust steel frames to support 40 solar panels for JCE Energy, a world a leader in custom solar/wind hybrid power solutions for the offshore and marine industries. The panels were installed on an offshore oil and gas platform in the North Sea. 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬: 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠: Constructed eight durable frames using high-strength Grade 355 steel, designed to withstand harsh offshore conditions. 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧: Our engineering team developed a unique solution for solar panels to track the sun throughout the day using a mechanism inspired by gas struts. This innovation ensures optimal energy capture and efficient use of limited space, without disrupting offshore operations. 𝐎𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐬: The frames successfully support five solar panels on each frame, providing a reliable and efficient power source to integrate seamlessly into the platform’s infrastructure. This project is a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation in overcoming complex engineering challenges in demanding environments.
