As the world\u2019s leading wind energy operator, Iberdrola has been pioneering renewable energy technologies for over 20 years. Given the current growth in the offshore wind energy market, Iberdrola is well-positioned as a global leader. In this context, it is launching the Autonomous Underwater Offshore Inspections Startup Challenge<\/span>.<\/p>\n Offshore wind energy has become a key growth driver for Iberdrola, with current operational marine assets of 1.26 GW and an additional portfolio of 9.6 GW under development or construction. These assets are expected to be operational by 2027, supported by a global investment of EUR 30 billion.<\/p>\n Marine environments can be harsh, with extreme weather conditions. Iberdrola is looking for solutions capable of withstanding these conditions to optimize maintenance inspections. It aims to reduce maintenance costs, time, and risks for employees.<\/p>\n Through its startup program PERSEO, Iberdrola is launching this challenge to find fully autonomous or remotely operated solutions that optimize the underwater inspections of its various offshore assets.<\/p>\n The focus is primarily, though not exclusively, on detecting anomalies and failures in foundation elements and seabed anchoring of its offshore assets. Additionally, subsea cable inspection solutions will also be considered. Your proposals should actively address one of the following areas:<\/p>\n Iberdrola is also interested in solutions that address the challenge even if not mentioned in the examples above.<\/p>\n Winning this Challenge will award you with signing a collaboration agreement to develop a Proof-of-Concept (PoC).
