The Ministry of Shipping of the Republic of India is keen to promote the use of renewable sources of energy and is in the process of installing solar and wind based power systems at all the Major Ports across India.

DNV GL adds to its service offering offers in the field of electrical measurement for renewable energy producers with a mobile test laboratory for carrying out “Over Voltage Ride Through” (OVRT) tests.

The European Commission is looking to turn emerging ocean energy technologies like tidal and wave power into "another European success story", replicating the spectacular uptake of offshore wind.

The UK's Port of Cromarty Firth has welcomed the biggest single delivery of wind turbine components to the port, to complete 17 complete wind turbine towers for the Corriemoille windfarm in Garve, Ross-shire.

In this article, Mr Kalle Kägi, COO & Co-Founder at Planet OS, explains how climate change drives new business.

DNV GL’s Group President & CEO Remi Eriksen explains what our energy future will look like, based on the recently published Technology Outlook report.

Harnessing the University of California’s leadership in sustainability and pledge to become carbon neutral by 2025, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Associate Director Bruce Appelgate had a bright idea: What if Scripps Oceanography at UC San Diego began using 100 percent renewable diesel fuel, or biofuel, to power its research vessels?

The first vessel within the renewable energy segment, and also the first with the newly-developed X-STERN™ hull line design, has been launched from Ulstein Verft. The service operation vessel for the offshore wind industry is one of two being constructed for Bernhard Schulte Offshore, and will be working for Siemens.

Coal and gas-fired electricity generation last year drew less than half the record investment made in solar, wind and other renewables capacity - one of several important firsts for green energy announced in a UN-backed report.

Doubling renewables in the global energy mix by 2030 is not only feasible, but cheaper than not doing so. Economic savings would far exceed the costs. It would create more jobs, boost economic growth and save millions of lives annually through reduced air pollution. It would also, when coupled with greater energy efficiency, put the world on track to keep the rise of temperatures within 2°C, in line with the 2015 Paris Agreement. But to meet that goal, renewable energy deployment must happen six times faster than current rates.
