Celtic Sea FLOW - Potential range of regional manufacturing opportunities - 12th June 2023
Led by ORE Catapult, Cornwall FLOW Accelerator, in conjunction with Celtic Sea Cluster, is organising a webinar to explore and explain the findings from a series of reports recently published by ORE Catapult. One of the key elements of the €6 million-part ERDF funded project Cornwall FLOW Accelerator is to build supply chain capacity capable of delivering low carbon footprint operations within the offshore floating wind sector.
These newly published reports follow up on the literature reviews carried out earlier in the project, by taking the knowledge gained there and applying it in a life cycle analysis to pinpoint specific areas within the design and build of floating offshore wind structures the reports highlight the key opportunities for emissions reduction.
The webinar will review the size and scope of FLOW in the Celtic Sea and update on leasing and CfD rounds; explore the findings of the reports within the key component areas of: blades; towers; foundations; anchoring & mooring systems; and electrical infrastructure. The content will have a focus on the regional opportunities for manufacturing.
The webinar will be run during one day, Monday 12 June 2023 in two parts:
- 10:30 to 12:00 – Analysis & Insights , Blades, Towers & Foundations.
- 14:00 to 15: 30 – Analysis & Insights , Anchoring & Mooring Systems, Electrical Infrastructure.
