It has never been clearer that the energy transition is not just underway, it is thriving. There is a concrete shift away from traditional fossil fuel energy generation towards renewable, recyclable, reusable energy. It’s not perfect, it will take time, and hydrocarbons are certainly part of the mix (for now at least), but the transition is happening. And people are embracing it. Even those staunchly behind oil, gas, and coal are now seeing the financial gains that can be realised through modern renewable strategies that include wind, solar, tidal, and more.

Perhaps those deep in the industry know that the transition has been happening for some time. But real change has not been realised by end users. That is about to change. In the coming decades, Europe will be powered by offshore wind, and the US is now coming onstream too. Canada’s oil and gas production is cleaner than ever, and floating offshore projects look set to add to the success.

At the recent North Sea Wind Summit in Esbjerg, a target for 150 GW of offshore wind in Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, and Belgium was agreed, leading Ørsted CEO Mads Nipper to call the North Sea the power plant of Europe for the next 25 years.

This month, we learn more about the Moray East and Triton Knoll Offshore Wind Farms, as well as the formation of service provision group Windlogix as the UK embraces its windy coastline. We also hear from Spartan Delta Corp and BMO Capital Markets in Canada about optimising oil and gas production. A special celebration is happening at NHV, the B2B European helicopter operator of choice, as it achieves 25 years of continued success.
