![]() ![]() Placing wind turbines on floating foundations is the next step for offshore wind to fully reach its potential – allowing us to greatly increase our scope and scale beyond the relatively shallow waters suitable for seabed-fixed turbines. Deeper waters, stronger windsĪfter 30 years of development, seabed-fixed offshore wind is now firmly established as a mature, cost-effective technology playing a key role in the global green energy transition. Fortunately, we are confident that we can build off the rich experience and talent not only at Ørsted, but in the UK, to deliver floating offshore wind as a global industry at scale. Three interrelated crises – the energy crunch, climate change, and biodiversity loss – are all driving the urgent need to develop new renewable energy solutions.įor floating offshore wind to truly work, it needs to be a global industry. But we’ve done this before with seabed-fixed offshore wind – and with the right investment in new technologies, infrastructure, and supply chain – we can do it again.Īnd we must. Reaching new waters is not going to be easy. Please check your email to download the Whitepaper.įloating offshore wind offers tremendous potential: It could allow us to tap into as much as 80% of the world’s offshore wind resource, placing turbines in much deeper waters with stronger and more consistent winds. Download the whitepaper to learn more about why the need for speed is so important in the net zero race – and how to make it happen. And an enhanced regulatory framework would give the green energy transition a stronger supply-push and demand-pull in highly polluting sectors. Large offtakers’ demand and renewable supplies can be better matched. New, larger spaces need to be allocated to greenfield developments. ![]() Offshore wind and power-to-X development needs to be put on a new footing. ![]() Meanwhile Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and ensuing energy market turbulence, has upped the urgency of a secure, sustainable solution to Europe’s power problems. ![]() But actual buildout rates have stalled, and inflationary pressures are throwing new projects into doubt. According to official targets, the current buildout rate of 3-4 GW offshore wind per year will double to 8 GW per year by 2030, increasing again to 20 GW per year from 2036. Teuton breaks down the disabling binary of orality and literacy, offering readers a cogent, historically informed theory of indigenous textuality that allows for deeper readings of Native American cultural and literary expression.Europe’s energy policymakers are suffering a divorce between ambition and action. Through a textually grounded exploration of what Teuton calls the oral impulse, the graphic impulse, and the critical impulse, we see how and why various types of contemporary Native literary production are interrelated and draw from long-standing indigenous methods of creative representation. The center of this book examines four key works of contemporary American Indian literature by N. He proposes a theory of how and why indigenous oral and graphic means of recording thought are interdependent, their functions and purposes determined by social, political, and cultural contexts. Teuton begins with a study of Mesoamerican writings, Diné sand paintings, and Haudenosaunee wampum belts. Weaving connections between indigenous modes of oral storytelling, visual depiction, and contemporary American Indian literature, Deep Waters demonstrates the continuing relationship between traditional and contemporary Native American systems of creative representation and signification. ![]()
