Welcome to the IDEA Ireland project podcast series which looks at the offshore wind farm industry featuring experts on key aspects of the design and operation of a floating offshore wind farm. Through the series, you will get an overview of the industry, the stakeholders involved in developing a floating wind farm, and the opportunities and challenges that floating wind presents.
Gain open access to designs, data and guidelines to help researchers and industry move forward in planning and building large-scale floating wind farms in Irish waters.
The podcast is brought to you by a collection of industry experts, University College Cork (UCC), Gavin and Doherty Geosolutions (GDG) and Wind Energy Ireland (WEI) are working alongside an International Energy Association (IEA) Wind Energy task 49 to develop Integrated Designs for Floating Offshore Wind Farms (IDEA).
The IDEA-IRL project is funded by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI). See IDEA-IRL website for further details; follow us on linkedin; email IDEA-IRL@ucc.ie; sign up to our IDEA-IRL mailing list

To kickstart the podcast series we have Greg Bohan senior off shore consultant at Gavin & Doherty Geosolutions to give an insight to the floating off shore wind industry, to breakdown what exactly off shore floating wind turbines are, what stage Ireland is at with it's introduction of floating off shore wind and what are the main challenges with their introduction to Irish seas.
