The challenges in the push towards renewable energy

Kent at SPE OE 2023

In a recent interview with STV at SPE Offshore Europe, Simon Lyons, Chief Business Development Officer at Kent, shed light on the current landscape of renewable energy and the challenges that companies within the sector are confronting.

The segment highlighted key elements such as the impact of regulatory changes, technological advancements, and the need for human resources in offshore ventures. The conversation served as an illuminating exploration of not only the potential of renewable energy but also the strategic and operational challenges faced by companies in the industry.

If you look around Offshore Europe, you're going to see a lot of the technical delivery papers are around decarbonisation, carbon capture and hydrogen. That's the way the market is actually going but the real barrier is the pace of change. There are many opportunities in front of us and in front of other companies.
