Marine consultancy firm, Van Ameyde Marine, has welcomed the Government’s £1.5 billion funding pledge for clean energy at a “pivotal moment” in the country's transition to renewable energy.
Jeff Wilson, managing director of Van Ameyde Marine said: “The new Government has stated its intention to support investment in UK waters with £1.1bn budget set aside for offshore wind. This record-breaking investment is welcome news but must be backed by marine expertise in site surveying, engineering and project management to understand and limit the massive risks involved.
“This expertise is crucial to the UK's renewable energy targets so as an industry we need to continue to invest in the skills of our people and collaborate with external organisations to share best practice. For Van Ameyde Marine, this has included partnering with government bodies, industry associations, and academic institutions to foster innovation and drive the energy transition. These partnerships are essential in creating a sustainable and resilient energy future for the UK.”
