Beschrijving

Offshore wind has a vital role to play in the global transition to green energy. As a rapidly growing energy technology, offshore wind has huge potential around the world. In the Belgian North Sea, offshore wind farms generate about 10% of Belgium’s total electricity demand. By 2030, offshore wind capacity in the North Sea will continue to grow, generating about 30% of electricity demand of Belgium.

For this booming industrial sector, Ghent University provides three tracks of lifelong learning courses for those who want to expand their knowledge of all phases of offshore wind energy, with a mix of academic and industrial speakers:

  • Foundational track
  • Advanced track of technological aspects
  • Regulatory and economic track

The foundational track will cover the basics of offshore wind energy.

Programma

This foundational track provides the terminology, phases and processes of offshore wind energy, and allows the students to get acquainted with the correct terminology. After the qualitative description of the components, the project life cycle (from tendering to decommissioning) is outlined. The procedures and terminology in offshore wind installation and financial aspects are described. Further, the in-service terminology (during the Operations & Maintenance) is provided. Finally, an overview of innovation and trends is given.

  • Overview of offshore wind farms: from wind turbine systems to the electric grid connection
  • Project life cycle (from tendering to decommissioning)
  • Offshore wind farm installation (terminology & procedures)
  • ABC of offshore wind financing
  • Operational excellence in O&M
  • Innovation drivers, technology & market trends overview
