Atos to support Ailes Marines in securing Saint-Brieuc offshore wind farm in Brittany, France
Making sure the risk-free generation of renewable energy
.
Paris, December one, 2020,
A consortium led by Atos has been chosen by Ailes Marines – a organization one hundred% owned by Iberdrola, in cost of the building, installation and procedure of an offshore wind farm in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc, France – to put into action mission essential communications alternatives and make certain marine coordination actions for its new wind farm task. With building function on the farm established to start in the initially semester of 2021, Atos will make certain that all actions at sea are operate seamlessly, in buy to support Iberdrola provide clean, trustworthy energy for the environment.
Atos will put into action a comprehensive operational marine coordination centre found in Pleudaniel (Brittany, France) to coordinate, watch and document all site visitors in and close to the building area, operating 24/7 for the duration of the building stage. Although developing and handling a wind farm of 103 km2 is a quite advanced course of action the place lots of operators and organizations are circulating in the offshore web site, the Atos remedy allows Ailes Marines to make certain that all of its on-web site functions operate efficiently and that only authorized people today and gear circulate in the area. This centre will notably allow Ailes Marines’ teams to register and observe vessels and their crew in authentic time for top on-web site safety, to make certain basic safety of the offshore functions in the farm (such as a ‘Permit to work’ system) or to strategy and watch offshore actions according to the weather forecast. For this coordination centre, Atos will function in partnership with SeaRenergy, a leading supplier of engineering companies as well as offshore marine, QHSE and staffing alternatives for the offshore wind marketplace. In this task SeaRenergy will supply remarkably skilled marine management personnel.
Atos will also established up a unified essential voice communication system that will enable helicopters, ships, and operational teams doing the job on the offshore farm to converse seamlessly between them or with the coordination centre, in and close to the wind farm[one]. In a unpredictable environment, 16,3 km absent from the shore, the place the regular telecom networks do not function, the Atos remedy is built in this kind of a way that communication between operators is assured in all problems, making use of satellite telephones as back again up, and can be utilised to manage incidents and emergencies.
Both of those devices will continue to be operational after the building stage and will support Ailes Marines during the exploitation stage, when the sixty two turbines will be operational.
“Extreme environments simply call for exceptionally trustworthy communication alternatives and we have been looking for a French professional to enable coordinate and secure our initially offshore wind farm in France. The encounter of the Atos teams, their knowledge of offshore and the quite distinct electronic and OT technologies related with this area are quite worthwhile to us.” stated Javier Garcia Perez, President of Ailes Marines and Intercontinental Offshore Director of Iberdrola.

“We are delighted to support Iberdrola being one particular of the initially movers in the French offshore wind industry,” stated Dr. Benjamin Vordemfelde, CEO of SeaRenergy. “We are looking ahead to contributing our encounter and specialist knowledge from other assignments in Europe to the energy changeover in France and also make interesting new jobs for the neighborhood workforce in the Saint-Brieuc area.”
The Saint-Brieuc offshore wind farm will be crafted by Ailes Marines – fully owned by Iberdrola, the biggest energy group in Spain and globe chief in wind power – in the bay of Saint-Brieuc, Brittany, 16.3 kilometers off the coastline. When concluded, the 496 MW wind farm will generate one,820 GWh for every 12 months, which is equal to the once-a-year electrical energy usage of 835,000 inhabitants. The foundation installation will work will begin in the initially semester of 2021 the wind farm will be fully operational in 2023. The deal with Atos and SeaRenergy will final result in the development of ten qualified jobs in France. Atos will also mobilize roughly ten people today for the installation stage of the specialized gear.
