The UK and China are two of the world’s largest and most developed offshore wind markets. The UK has installed 11GW over the last decade and is home to some of the world’s biggest offshore wind farms including Hornsea 1 and 2 which together have a combined output of 2.5GW. Meanwhile, China installed a record breaking 17GW of new offshore wind capacity in 2021 driven by rapid industrialisation of the domestic supply chain and the removal of feed in tariffs following the December 2021 deadline.
英國是世界上最大和最發達的海上風電市場之一,中國也是。在過去十年中,英國共安裝了1100萬千瓦風電,成為世界上最大的幾個海上風電場的所在地,包括 Hornsea 1 和 2,它們的總產量高達2500萬千瓦。與此同時,2021年,中國新增海上風電裝機容量達到了創紀錄的1700萬千瓦,國內供應鏈的快速發展以及 2021 年 12 月后對上網電價的放開都起到了很好的推動作用。
Globally, the offshore wind sector continues to innovate at pace: next generation turbines bring increased power ratings, rotor diameters, hub heights and loads, and continue to push operational and logistical limits, requiring the introduction of new technologies, operating procedures, and support infrastructure; the removal of subsidies and the competitive funding environment creates a focus on cost reduction; while the cost of failure and remediation creates opportunities for risk management, asset integrity, condition monitoring, preventative maintenance and operations planning solutions.
在全球范圍內,海上風電行業仍持續快速創新:新一代渦輪機帶來更高的額定功率、轉子直徑、輪轂高度和負載,并繼續降低運營和物流限制,這些也意味著需要引入全新的技術、運營流程和配套基礎設施;取消補貼和競爭激烈的融資環境使得降低成本成為關注的重點;而面對高昂的故障和修復成本,風險管理、資產整合、運行狀態監測、預防性維護和運營規劃解決方案也迎來了發展機會。
The fixed bottom offshore wind market will continue to experience rapid growth over the next few decades, while floating wind projects are also expected to become more prominent as good shallow water sites are used up and countries seek to tap into deeper water resources.
未來幾十年,固定式基礎海上風電市場將繼續快速增長,而隨著優良淺水場地的耗盡以及各國尋求開發更深的水域,浮動式風電項目也有望得到更加迅速的發展。
Floating wind brings a whole set of new challenges and opportunities for a sector currently assessing the merits of a wide range of hull structures and mooring concepts both in the laboratory and via large scale field trials such as the Kincardine and Hywind demonstration projects underway in Scotland. These early floating trials, combined with a wealth of experience gained in the North Sea O&G sector, position UK companies strongly for the emerging global floating offshore wind opportunity.
浮動式風電為目前仍在通過實驗室和大規模現場試驗(如正在蘇格蘭進行的 Kincardine 和 Hywind 示范項目)評測各種浮式結構和錨泊概念的海風行業帶來了一系列全新的挑戰和機遇。這些早期的浮式試驗,加上在北海油氣領域獲得的豐富經驗,使英國公司在全球浮式海上風電市場新興的機遇中占據優勢地位。
At this critical stage in the development of both the fixed and floating offshore wind markets, there are huge opportunities and benefits to be gained from collaboration between organisations and companies in the UK and China.
在固定式和浮式海上風電市場發展的關鍵階段,英中兩國相關機構和公司之間的合作可以帶來巨大機遇和裨益。
Funded by Innovate UK, the Global Business Innovation Programme (GBIP) helps ambitious UK companies collaborate and expand into new markets. This programme is focussed specifically on companies targeting the the Fixed and Floating Offshore Wind Sector in China. A Series of webinars held in February and March 2022 will showcase 10 innovative UK companies bringing forwards new solutions from mooring and geotechnical design services to digital asset monitoring solutions. The webinars will be of interest to OEMs, developers and design institutes as well as other offshore wind stakeholders.
由 Innovate UK 資助的全球商業創新計劃 (GBIP) 旨在幫助志向遠大的英國公司合作并拓展新市場。該計劃專門面向期待進入中國固定式和浮動式海上風電行業的英國公司。我們將于2022 年 2 到 3 月舉行一系列網絡研討會,聚焦 10 家創新的英國公司,展示從錨泊、巖土工程設計服務到數字資產監控管理的全新技術解決方案。 海上風電行業設備制造商、開發商、設計機構以及其他相關從業人員加入該系列研討會,獲取更多信息。
