The Offshore Wind Podcast

Welcome to the Offshore Wind Podcast, hosted by Stewart Mullin and David Lenti! Offshore wind is one of the world’s fastest growing energy sources, with strong year on year growth expected across the next few decades. Many nations are banking on offshore wind to play a major role in reaching their decarbonization and sustainability targets and helping their economies recover from the COVID-19 crisis. On the technology front, turbines are bigger and more powerful than ever, offshore wind farm capacity factors continue to rise and we are seeing a surge of interest from oil and gas giants seeking to transition their businesses away from fossil fuels, as well as increased competition from the developers who have championed offshore wind from day one.New markets in Asia, the Americas, and eventually Africa, accelerated growth in Europe, the rise of floating offshore wind and increasing interest in power-to-x solutions, are creating the basis for unprecedented growth in the industry. The offshore wind podcast series looks at the issues facing the offshore wind industry today, and opportunities for tomorrow. 

Goodbye David, Hello Rebecca and G'Day Australia!

Ahead of the first episode of season 5 of The Offshore Wind Podcast Stewart kicks off the preview pod with a farewell to long-time collaborator David Lenti, and welcomes incoming co-host Rebecca Williams, GWEC's Head of Offshore Wind.

Harvesting the gold in regional collaboration – The key to driving economic value in the offshore wind supply chain in APAC

The APAC region is experiencing rapid growth in many markets. Nations in the region are starting to exploit their natural wind resources, especially in offshore. But as countries come to terms with this opportunity, we are also seeing familiar patterns emerge in relation to the challenges each market grapples with before the market can truly reach its potential.

This episode looks to provide some insight into the local supply chain developments & local content requirements in the markets. Hosts Stewart Mullin and David Lenti are joined by
Danish Ambassador to Korea Einar Jensen for a deep dive into the Korean wind market, which shows a huge opportunity for the global wind industry.

The country is extremely committed to delivering on their National Determined Contributions (NDCs) and driving the green energy transition. But what will it cost to succeed in Korea? How should companies engage with the local supply chain? Will we see a sector deal like we have seen in other markets where government and industry come together to accelerate a smooth transition? All of these questions and more will be answered in this fire side chat.

How can the US reach 30GW by 2030? Leasing, infrastructure, regional collaboration, and more!

The Biden Administration recently set a national target of 30 GW of installed offshore wind capacity by 2030, a major push to demonstrate its renewed climate and renewable energy ambitions. According to the Government, this would create 77,000 new jobs, power 10 million homes, create $12 billion in capital investment, and cut 78 metric tonnes of CO2 emissions in the US. But how can the US reach 30 GW by 2030? In this episode, hosts Stewart Mullin and David Lenti are joined by Laura Morton, Senior Director, Policy and Regulatory Affairs, Offshore Wind at the American Clean Power Association, and Steven Dayney, Head of Offshore, North America at Siemens Gamesa, to discuss challenges and opportunities to put the US on-track to deliver 30 GW of offshore wind installations by 2030.

Rocking the boat: The role of vessels in driving offshore wind growth

As offshore wind continues to accelerate growth into new markets, the industry must keep looking to the future and anticipate growth to avoid any potential bottlenecks and be able to fulfil a growing demand for offshore wind. One potential bottleneck which could slow offshore wind installations is the availability of vessels. Fit-for-purpose vessels are critical for offshore wind farm installation and operations, and are key to enhance safety, efficiency and sustainability of projects. In this episode of The Offshore Wind Podcast, hosts Ben and Stewart are joined by guest Mikkel Gleerup, CEO of Cadeler, to discuss how vessels have evolved to improve the logistics of installing an offshore wind farm, and how we can prepare ourselves now to ensure we have the vessels in place to meet future demand.

Skills, Safety, and Diversity: The making of a global offshore wind workforce

The offshore wind sector is growing exponentially, with over 205 GW of new offshore wind capacity forecasted to be installed by the end of this decade. But, we need to make sure that there is a workforce in place, especially in emerging markets, in order to deliver this capacity and deliver on offshore wind’s incredible potential. Skills, safety, and diversity are three key factors that need to be considered in order to ensure the health and safety of workers, secure the long-term sustainability of the sector, create thousands of local jobs, and inclusively power the global energy transition so it benefits citizens across the globe.

In this episode, hosts Ben Backwell and Stewart Mullin are joined by Joyce Lee, Policy & Operations Director, GWEC and Coordinator of the Women in Wind Global Leadership Program, and Charles Battersby, Senior Consultant at Procorre to discuss skills, safety, and diversity as the three key factors that must be considered for building a strong offshore wind workforce.

Mega-turbines and supergrids: What's at the cutting edge of offshore wind technology?

Offshore wind turbines have come a long way since the first project was installed in 1991. One of the main reasons that the offshore wind industry has been so successful is thanks to technology innovation, which has helped to reduce costs and open new doors for the sector. Offshore wind turbines have become bigger and better at a rapid pace, with innovation driven primarily with the objective of lowering the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE).

In this episode of The Offshore Wind Podcast, Ben and Stewart are joined by Torben Larsen, CTO of MHI Vestas, to discuss recent innovations in the offshore wind industry, technology trends we are seeing now and into the future, as well as how offshore wind is coupling with other sectors such as Power-to-X and utilities to power a clean energy future.

Offshore Wind: What's all the excitement about?

Offshore wind has quite literally blown away everyone's expectations, growing rapidly as an industry over the last decade to become a key piece of the energy transition puzzle. From its early days as a niche technology in Europe, to its current status as one of the fastest growing energy power sources in markets across the world, offshore wind has come a long way - and we are only just at the beginning of harnessing its potential!

In the first episode of the series, hosts Ben Backwell and Stewart Mullin discuss how the offshore industry has evolved and grown, their journey to becoming advocates of this emerging technology, and why policy makers and governments are increasingly turning their attention to offshore wind.
