Head of Renewable Energy
Bureau Veritas
We have over a century of history in the power sector and more than 25 years of offshore wind expertise which is why we are instrumental in working with the team at Moray West to ensure the project’s success.
With an offshore wind farm of this scale and complexity, it’s vital to get the right third-party certification partner, and we are proud that Bureau Veritas has been chosen. We can identify potential risks at an early stage when they are more manageable and if initiated at the outset, project certification significantly reduces the risk profile of a wind project.
Mauricio continues: “We are proud to be involved in such an exemplary project through each of the development stages; implementing sustainable resources and leading the way towards growing the offshore wind sector is playing an intrinsic role in accelerating the energy transition.”
Across all continents, Bureau Veritas has been involved in 3,000+ onshore wind and solar projects in 50+ countries and has worked on more than 50 offshore wind projects.
