#RUKGOW23 has highlighted a huge amount of innovation going into offshore wind. But where should industry, academia and government focus its efforts most? A report last week was published by the Offshore Wind Industry Council with @ORECatapult attempts to answer this question – looking at areas where innovation can play its part in driving the sector forwards. 🌍 The report features examples of what great innovation looks like – from @bladebuglimited, @Proserv_ and @SupergenORE Hub . 🛠️ Read the press release and full report below with comment from Andrew Stormonth-Darling CEng and Laura Victoria Mejia, and foreword from OWIC Co-Chair Richard Sandford and CEO Andrew Jameison. owic.org.uk/news/innovatio…

🪟 THE GLASS IS GREENER | Steve was at the launch of @GlassFutures in St Helens today. ♻️ The centre has the potential to position the region as a leader in the decarbonisation of energy intensive industries. 💷 It's backed by £9m of funding from @MetroMayorSteve and the CA.

💬 "Glass Futures is putting St Helens back on the map as the home of glass and a world leader in the green industrial revolution." 📺 Watch @MetroMayorSteve explain why @GlassFutures is vital to the region reaching its target to be net zero by 2040 - a decade before government.

After nearly a decade of development it is wonderful to see @GlassFutures officially open. It is a critical element of how @LpoolCityRegion will lead and deliver decarbonisation of our foundation industries.
