WHAT WE DO
We actively explore, innovate, and mature new technologies and solutions within the renewable industry.
By utilizing our engineering expertise and industry knowledge, we identify discrepancies, inconsistencies, or gaps within the renewable industry. On our own or through collaborations with our strong network, we find achievable solutions and bring them to life. Our goal is to find viable solutions to the challenges in the renewable energy market.
IDEA PHASE
During the idea phase, we pinpoint needs and delve into potential solutions. When discovering a gap, we start generating ideas to address it. These ideas are then presented for internal evaluation to determine their viability for further in-depth analysis and to initiate the concept design phase.
CONCEPT PHASE
We create a suitable project and start the concept design phase. In this phase, we advance the renewable energy solutions while offering concrete descriptions, technical verification, and documentation for the concepts. In addition, the ground pillars for the commercial strategy are developed.
VALIDATION PHASE
During the validation phase, we carry out the basic design and go into greater detail with our project. We take all information and knowledge gained from the concept design phase and make sure all risks have identified mitigations for commercial delivery. The commercial strategy is shaped. The end of this phase is marked by a design verification and a pathway to enter the market for commercialization.
COMMERCIAL PHASE
Step four is the commercialization phase, where our concepts go to market. During this phase, the ambition is for our solutions to transition from meticulously developed concepts to the process of becoming actual, tangible products or services.
Fred. Olsen 1848’s planet safety moment
At the core of Fred. Olsen 1848’s mission lies a fundamental commitment to pioneering renewable energy solutions. Our dedication is rooted in the profound responsibility we feel toward protecting the future of our youth and the upcoming generations of our society.
The urgency for new and innovative solutions to combat today’s climate challenges and the future of our society has never been clearer. The statistics paint a clear picture.
Overcoming today's climate challenges is no simple feat. That is why we strongly advocate that one of the viable solutions to address these challenges lies in leveraging the long-term advantages of floating solar and offshore wind. These sustainable energy sources not only offer a way to tackle the challenges at hand but also serve a vital role in expanding energy accessibility to remote regions, providing a dedicated and dependable power supply.
Cutting-edge Solutions in Floating Offshore Wind
Floating offshore wind is the future and natural next step in generating wind energy. Floating offshore wind farms can be located further away from shore, where optimal wind conditions can be found. Explore our simple solutions in floating offshore wind built on 175 years of experience in the maritime and energy sector. The following page provides a comprehensive overview of our innovative technologies and initiatives, designed to harness the power of wind while treading lightly on the oceans. Learn more about our floating offshore wind energy solutions here.
The Future of Floating Solar Energy
Floating solar energy is an important part of the future of renewable energy. In populated and urbanized areas land scarcity makes it vital to tap into the ocean. Floating solar panels is the alternative, where land availability is limited and in climate with excess sun exposure.
