The United Kingdom is at the forefront of offshore wind expansion, boasting a thriving industry that provides clean, dependable energy, generates environmentally friendly employment opportunities, and plays a crucial role in the nation's transition to clean energy. Greenhouse gas emissions from offshore wind farm operation and maintenance vessels constituted 3.2% of domestic shipping emissions (192 ktCO2e) in the UK in 2022\. With ambitious targets to develop the UK's offshore wind capacity from 13.6 GW (2023) to 50 GW by 2050 and with a UK project pipeline over 100 GW, this percentage could rise to over 23% or 1,380 ktCO2e per year as this pipeline is realised in a business-as-usual scenario.To reach the ambitious targets set out by the UK government, the offshore construction market will need to reach a serial production level not previously seen in offshore industries. This provides a huge opportunity to deliver clean shipping objectives by directly innovating a new vessel class, and its functional capabilities to meet this challenge.Historically, most offshore wind development has involved installing fixed foundations rigidly attached to the seabed. The next chapter of offshore wind development will move towards using floating foundations, unlocking deeper sites, and accessing stronger winds further from shore. This new technology field will involve mooring floating foundations to support the world's largest offshore wind turbines. The Future FOW (Floating Offshore Wind) Installation Vessel (FFIV) project is focused on assessing the feasibility of a new class of vessel, aimed at minimising greenhouse gas emissions during the construction and maintenance of the next generation of Offshore Wind farms.The project brings together a capable and experienced team of UK SMEs with direct end-user experience of the challenges of offshore operations in the oil and gas and offshore renewable energy sectors. Expertise within the team includes offshore operations planning and delivery, naval architecture and marine engineering, regulations governing the design of innovative vessels, FOW stakeholder mapping and analysis and marine research and development project management.The end product of the FFIV project will be an outline design of the next generation of offshore wind construction vessels, fully embracing the clean maritime objective and ready to be included in the national shipbuilding strategy, cementing the UK position in delivery of net zero 2050\.

英国处于海上风电扩张的最前沿，拥有一个蓬勃发展的行业，提供清洁，可靠的能源，创造环保的就业机会，并在国家向清洁能源过渡中发挥着至关重要的作用。2022年，海上风电场运营和维护船舶的温室气体排放量占英国国内航运排放量（192千吨二氧化碳当量）的3. 2%。随着英国海上风电装机容量从13.6吉瓦（2023年）发展到2050年的50吉瓦的宏伟目标，以及英国超过100吉瓦的项目管道，这一比例可能会上升到23%以上，即每年1，380 ktCO 2 e，因为这一管道是在一切照旧的情况下实现的。海上建筑市场将需要达到海上工业以前没有过的连续生产水平。这提供了一个巨大的机会，通过直接创新新的船舶类别及其功能来实现清洁航运目标，以应对这一挑战。历史上，大多数海上风电开发都涉及安装刚性连接到海床的固定基础。海上风电开发的下一章将转向使用浮动基础，解锁更深的站点，并从海岸获得更强的风力。这一新技术领域将涉及系泊浮动基础，以支持世界上最大的海上风力涡轮机。未来的FOW（浮动海上风力）安装船（FFIV）项目的重点是评估一种新型船舶的可行性，旨在最大限度地减少下一代海上风电场建设和维护过程中的温室气体排放。该项目汇集了一支有能力和经验丰富的英国中小企业团队，石油和天然气以及海上可再生能源部门海上作业挑战的用户体验。该团队的专业知识包括海上运营规划和交付、海军建筑和海洋工程、管理创新船舶设计的法规、FOW利益相关者绘图和分析以及海洋研发项目管理。FFIV项目的最终产品将是下一代海上风电施工船舶的概要设计，完全接受清洁海事目标，并准备纳入国家造船战略，巩固英国在2050年实现净零排放的地位。
