Case study
The world's largest offshore wind farm
Fugro was involved at all stages of the development of a flagship renewable energy project which was officially inaugurated in July 2013.
Case study
Ensuring the first offshore wind farm in the US is structurally sound
Block Island Wind Farm is the first offshore wind farm in the US. As such, it played a vital, pioneering role in showing the economic feasibility of renewable offshore energy. Our pile-drivability analysis and monitoring activities helped ensure its long-term success.
