The Joule Challenge

Joule Challenge aims to incorporate radical, new composite-based components in the next generation of offshore wind turbines.

The UK offshore wind industry is expected to generate over 100,000 jobs by 2030 – and an economic opportunity worth up to £92 billion by 2040. Together with Offshore Renewable Catapult, the NCC is leading the Joule Challenge to accelerate transformational opportunities that will anchor this future wind industry in the UK.

The unique project harnesses composites to develop next generation 20 MW floating offshore wind turbines to deliver lower energy costs, enhanced sustainability, new skills, and export opportunities for the UK supply chain. A demonstrator is being developed to enable a clear product route to market. Once industrialised, offshore wind turbines the size of the London Shard will directly support UK net zero targets, improve energy security, and contribute to a further 10-year GVA estimated at upto £2.1 billion.
