Offshore wind
Buoy-based camera footage, analyzed by artificial intelligence, can help reduce the risk of birds colliding with offshore wind farm turbines.
Equinor said it plans to restart construction on the project, which currently is 30% complete.
A US government order has stopped building activity aimed at harnessing wind energy offshore New York.

If approved, Vineyard Wind 1 would be the first commercial-scale offshore wind project in the US.
-
After a lot of talk of the transition, BP and Total are making bids to become major wind energy producers in the UK. Meanwhile, NOV said the offshore wind sector is becoming a big business for it too.
