Offshore wind

Beyond Energy: what a wind farm really asks of the places around it.

Beyond Energy is Ocean Winds' own series on how offshore wind actually gets built. We made films and animation for it: permits, ports, foundations, floating wind and the route to market.

The story

From their problem to what changed.

  1. The problem

    Beyond Energy: what a wind farm really asks of the places around it.

  2. The gap

    Permits, ports, supply chains and local jobs are the real story, and hard to see from the shore.

  3. The bridge

    An explainer series built on animation and film, port and supply chain stories, event coverage and a TV ad.

  4. What changed

    A footage library reused across stakeholder engagement, recruitment and the fight against misinformation.

The animation

Stills from the work.
