Western European Photovoltaic Containerized Automated Type for Oil Platforms

Why should oil and gas companies integrate offshore solar power systems?

By integrating offshore solar power systems, oil and gas companies can reduce their emissions and the need to purchase additional allowances, thereby cutting compliance costs. This strategy also aids in complying with schemes like the UK Emissions Trading Scheme.

Why should oil and gas companies integrate solar and hybrid power systems?

Reduced Emissions and Environmental Impact Integrating offshore solar and hybrid power systems into oil and gas operations allows companies to diversify their energy portfolio. This transition helps lower the carbon footprint and greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to a cleaner environment.

Can offshore solar photovoltaics deliver cost competitive energy to net zero?

RWE is now exploring the prospects for stand-alone and hybrid offshore solar photovoltaics to offer new ways to deliver cost competitive energy in our journey to Net Zero. RWE has more than 30 years’ experience in the construction and operation of solar power plants.

Are FPV systems a viable alternative to traditional land photovoltaic (LPV) systems?

FPV systems have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional land photovoltaic (LPV) systems, primarily due to their ability to address land scarcity as shown in Table 1, especially in regions where available land for large-scale solar installations is limited.
