offshore wind power

We have recently launched one of our biggest updates so far and we’re excited to show you our new module Pixel+, the solution for early-stage offshore wind projects. Building on the success of our previous modules, Pixel and Pixel Park, we have designed Pixel+ to offer a more intuitive, organised, and customisable experience. 
Pixel+ takes the best of our previous modules Pixel and Pixel Park, merging them together so that it is more intuitive, organised, and customisable than our original packages. You will be able to seamlessly move between your area screening process, to your layout design phase, to calculate the electrical cable efficiencies all in one place. 

 

Why do we measure? 

To get a representative and accurate characterisation of an offshore site conditions, developers carry out on site measurement campaigns.  

Investors, financial institutions, and authorities, in consonance with industry standards, assess projects’ feasibility and outcomes based on the so-considered bankable data.  

Bankable means reliable, trustable, transparent, reproducible, and aligned with the best practices and quality requirements set by the industry. 

 

The establishment of offshore wind farms has emerged as a pivotal solution for meeting the growing demand for renewable energy. The success of these projects heavily relies on strategic siting, as the chosen location significantly impacts both the efficiency and sustainability of the wind farms. Geospatial data, encompassing a wide range of spatial information, plays a crucial role in enhancing the siting process and overall performance of offshore wind energy initiatives. 

 

As renewable energy generation intensifies several markets are positioned as well established in the sector as well as new and emerging countries that have ambitious plans for the future. With technological advancements, supportive policies, and increasing investment, we are poised to see continued growth in the sector. Here at Youwind, we have identified several markets that are leading the push and others that are just starting in their efforts to develop offshore wind.

 

Because of significant developments in the availability of technology, we have made advancements in the offshore wind sector. With the continued growth of turbines, the revolutionary technology of floating farms, and the development in energy storage we are continuously being able to guarantee a more secure and stable supply of energy coming from renewable sources.   

 

The one-time purchase of software on a CD from the 2000s is thankfully not the norm anymore as this system didn’t allow developers to continuously improve their product offering by fixing bugs and developing new features for users according to the needs of the market. For example, if you were to have bought version 8.1 you could upgrade to 8.2 but not to 9.0 or above.  

SaaS is a new term used to refer to a monthly or yearly subscription to a software service. In today’s world, SaaS is set up so that clients other than receiving the product, also have access to free and recurring updates, user support, backups, and other additional perks.
