Robotics in Offshore Renewables Live Stream event; 6th February 2020, Live Stream
The UK leads the world for offshore wind, having more installed capacity in its waters than any other country. As we push towards the UK Government’s target of at least 30GW by 2030, the imperative is to ensure that UK businesses lead the global export market for offshore wind manufacturing, technologies and services too.
ORE Catapult works with some of the UK's foremost academic and industry experts in robotics and automation through a multitude of research and innovation projects. The future vision is one where wind farm operations and maintenance require zero human presence offshore. Instead, the focus will be on building a UK workforce in high-growth, high-skilled, high-tech roles onshore.
ORE Catapult believe that the cost, efficiency and safety benefits of robotics offshore will accelerate the world's transition to cleaner energy. The UK needs to be in the driving seat and bringing these jobs of the future to its shores.
ORE Catapult will convene four robotics and renewable energy industry experts to discuss how a heady mix of crawling, climbing and sailing robots, NASA mission planning and global-scale wind operators will achieve this goal.
