Onshore and Offshore Wind Power

Harnessing the Power of Wind

Successful Project Delivery and Innovation

At Ayesa, we are dedicated to advancing both onshore and offshore wind energy projects by providing assistance and experience. With over 8,000 MW delivered across 70 projects worldwide, our commitment spans the entire project lifecycle—from initial due diligence, brownfield or greenfield feasibility studies to conceptual, basic and detailed infrastructure design, including substations, HV transmission, and distribution lines as well as support throughout the construction and commissioning processes. Proudly partnering with many leading energy clients such as Iberdrola, EDP Renovables, Repsol E&G, and Shell Renovables, Ayesa delivers support services to ensure successful project execution and long-term sustainability.

Multidisciplinary

Our multidisciplinary team includes experts in engineering, marine engineering, planning, financial analysis, safety, atmospheric, wave and wind modelling, hydrogeology, and social and environmental sciences.

Studies to underpin Project Success

We optimize wind farm layouts and ancillary civil structures, supported by rigorous studies to enhance resilience and streamline operations and maintenance.

End-to-End Services

Our wind energy services include electrical, civil, and structural engineering support, alongside comprehensive environmental planning to ensure regulatory compliance and secure onshore wind farm consents. Additionally, our advisory specialists perform technical and commercial due diligence to assist with appraisals, and transactions, and serve as lenders’ technical advisors (LTA).

Comprehensive Services

Site Identification and Evaluation

We identify and assess optimal sites for wind projects, ensuring maximum energy capture and efficiency for both onshore and offshore installations.

Geotechnical and Hydrological Studies

Our geotechnical studies encompass foundation design, soil stability, and risk assessments such as subsidence and settlement. We utilize advanced LiDAR technology for precise terrain mapping and analysis. Hydrological studies include 3D modelling to address potential flooding and its impact on roads and platform layouts.

Civil Infrastructure

We manage all aspects of civil infrastructure for wind farms, including Foundations, crane hardstands, culverts, access roads, transmission and distribution systems, substations, subsea pipelines, meteorological towers, electrical systems, and operations and maintenance facilities.

Planning and Permitting

We navigate regulatory requirements and secure necessary permits tailored to the specific location of each project. Our expertise ensures that all legal and environmental compliance issues are addressed efficiently.

Environmental Impact Assessment

Our environmental assessments minimize ecological impact while engaging with local communities to ensure project support and compliance. We work to foster positive relationships with stakeholders and mitigate any adverse effects on the environment.

Basic and Detailed Design of Wind Farms

Our civil engineering services include both basic and detailed design for wind farms. This involves extensive geotechnical and hydrological studies to ensure site suitability and structural integrity. We provide detailed design and planning to optimize the construction and operation of wind farms.

R&D Innovation

At the forefront of innovation, Ayesa engages in cutting-edge projects like the INTEGRIA Project, which aims to overcome key challenges in scaling floating wind farms from prototypes to commercial operations by integrating advanced tools and models. The case study looks at gaps in existing offshore O&M models, including the lack of real-world failure data to improve decision-making and operational efficiency for floating wind turbines.

Supporting The Offshore Wind Sector

Feasibility and Pre-Development

We conduct thorough feasibility studies, including maritime spatial planning, technical due diligence, and advanced modeling. During development, we refine project details, assess soil conditions and seismic factors and provide foundation design. Our services cover dredging, hydrodynamic modeling, logistics studies, marine consents, spatial planning, and met-ocean data analysis. Our services include comprehensive Land Management services.

Construction Support

We oversee and supervise the construction of offshore wind farms, ensuring strict adherence to project specifications and regulatory standards. Our team ensures compliance with design requirements and safety regulations, providing quality assurance throughout the build phase.

Port Redevelopment

Recognizing the role of ports in the offshore wind ecosystem, Ayesa collaborates with port authorities to develop infrastructure that supports offshore wind operations, maintenance, and storage of O&M equipment. We provide technical due diligence and innovative solutions for mooring and anchoring.

Asset Management

We offer customized operational assessments and modelling, including digital twin ecosystems, reliability modeling, structural health monitoring, and electrical infrastructure assessment, guiding decisions on upgrades, life extensions, or decommissioning.

ESG Strategy and Compliance

We ensure that offshore wind farms adhere to environmental and regulatory standards, supporting clients in developing robust ESG strategies and maintaining compliance.
