What people say
We are an ambitious and driven company with extensive growth plans in Offshore Wind energy. The funding from OWGP has helped us take the next vital step in our development – ensuring we stay relevant and viable in a fiercely competitive, rapidly changing sector.”
KARL CROCKARD
Managing Director, CASC Limited
Site mobilisation services, component design and manufacture for the renewables and engineering sectors.
We knew that we had a concept with strong potential for floating renewables. The OWGP project allowed us to demonstrate how it can reduce installation and operating costs in floating offshore wind, while identifying the technology drivers, market opportunity and route to technical readiness. With this sound basis we are excited to be developing the PALM QCS for Scotwind, INTOG and other forthcoming deployments in the UK.”
NIGEL ROBINSON
Offshore Renewables Director, Apollo Offshore Engineering
Engineering company delivering design and consultancy services to help accelerate the transition towards a low carbon economy.
With Offshore Wind being an important target growth market for our business, the Offshore Wind Growth Partnership’s programme has been fundamental for building our credibility in this area and has helped to facilitate relationships with key contacts at wind operators.”
RICHARD KNOX
Managing Director, Verlume
A leader in intelligent management and energy storage technologies for the energy industry.
OWGP’s grant funding has been critical in moving our business forward. It enabled us to commit to the project and get prototypes into the hands of the big utilities. We have been able to test our hypothesis while cushioning the risk. We’re now winning contracts with large scale operators as a result.”
GABY AMIEL
Co-Founder and CEO, Sennen
A centralised cloud-based system to manage offshore wind operations.
It’s hugely helpful to have a dedicated source of funding to bring innovative ideas to life for the Offshore Wind industry. Without OWGP’s support, it would have taken much longer to develop the WAVES product. “
Ty Burridge-Oakland
Founder and Managing Director, Cognitive
Driving safety and efficiency in operations and maintenance through applied AI technoloes.
We came out the other end of WEST knowing exactly what we had to do to position ourselves. There was so much more opportunity for us in that sector that we hadn’t realised from doing our own research.”
WAYNE HENDERSON
Managing Director, Marex
Enterprise risk management for the energy and marine sectors.
