This course explores the synergies between the production of hydrogen and the existing - and future - use of onshore and offshore wind. Both the onshore and offshore wind industries have grown significantly globally. The offshore wind industry has expanded significantly; for example in the UK in the last 20 years it’s grown to 10 gigawatts now in operation.
Challenges remain however not least connecting these generators to the grid with grid capacity acting as a bottleneck and considerable cost. Hydrogen production could be a more cost effective way to tap this energy abundance. Ideal for those of a non-technical background, seeking to better understand both new business opportunities and risks, the session aims to be low on powerpoint and maximise the time for Q&A.

Meet the Trainer
Charlie Rattan gained consent for the £26m Hunterston national offshore turbine test facility, giving SSE a world leading centre for the testing of next generation machines. Charlie led the £4bn 690MW Islay offshore wind farm, steering the team through a successful hearing process to gain a critical consent.
He has managed and mitigated risks for the 4.2 GW Seagreen offshore wind farm, ensuring risks were addressed He has also advised on conceptual planning for French offshore wind farms utilising knowledge of recent advances in offshore construction to identify operational expenditure reductions of up to 20%.
