UK and NSEC Strengthen Offshore Renewables Ties

The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on offshoreWIND.biz.

This is the sub-heading.

Members of the North Seas Energy Cooperation (NSEC), the UK, and the European Commission have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to strengthen their cooperation for the development of offshore renewable energy.

The article is based on this article on the European Commission web site, which is entitled North Seas Energy Cooperation And UK Establish Cooperation Framework To Facilitate The Development Of Offshore Renewable Energy.

The full signed text is also in this document on the web site, which is entitled Memorandum of Understanding on offshore renewable energy cooperation.

I have read the MoU and it seems a sensible document for one with eleven signatures.

It lists the following areas of cooperation.

• Hybrid and joint projects
• Maritime and spacial planning
• Support framework and finance
• Best practice in respect of onshore and offshore grid practice
• Sharing of information on new technologies
• Exchange of best practices in relation to the relevant rules, regulations and technical standards

The MoU expects any problems to be resolved by consultations in good faith.
