As the world shifts towards renewable energy, innovative solutions are emerging to optimize energy generation, storage, and distribution. One such innovation is cable pooling, transforming offshore wind into multi-use energy parks. This blog dives into the concept of cable pooling, the challenges faced by these energy parks, and the crucial role Dynamic subsea cables play in these systems.
Scarce metals and minerals that we will desperately need in the future lie at the bottom of the ocean for us to pick. Therefore, many countries are looking into the possibilities of deep sea mining: harvesting these raw materials at depths of kilometers. An important role is reserved for ROVs and ROV Cables.
The EU aims to reduce dependency on imports of raw materials. ROVs and ROV Cables play an important role in harvesting such materials in European waters.
For a cutting-edge EU Research Project, DeRegt was asked to join an EU-funded consortium of 14 companies. Industry, research institutes and service companies across seven different countries joined forces.
Subsea cables are stored on land and (mainly) used in water. That means the temperature difference between deploying and retrieving can be high. Therefore, controlling the cable's temperature in-field is often a challenge.
