Abstract
The scale of investment required to leverage Great Britain abundant offshore wind resource and decarbonise its economy by 2050 and power system by 2035 is vast. Developing the infrastructure connecting these resources to consumers, whether electricity or hydrogen, is expensive, technically complex, creates system operability challenges and can be disruptive to local communities.
This project seeks to explore and develop an open-source standard framework and accompanying capabilities to assess the impact of taking a cross-energy vector approach and co-locating assets offshore -- with a view to addressing parts of the challenges mentioned above and ultimately reducing costs to consumers.
