Offshore wind developer Ocean Winds has renewed its partnership with analytics firm Spinergie to support project planning and execution across its global portfolio, the companies said on Monday.
Ocean Winds, a joint venture between EDP Renewables and Engie, said the extended agreement will provide enhanced market intelligence to address industry-wide challenges such as rising costs, supply chain disruptions, and limited vessel availability.
The partnership gives Ocean Winds access to Spinergie’s data platform, which offers real-time and historical insights into offshore installation and maintenance campaigns. The platform supports planning by enabling developers to benchmark project performance and identify suitable construction vessels ahead of time.
“Spinergie enables us to benchmark our project plans against the broader market,” said Oscar Diaz, Ocean Winds’ Chief EPCI Officer. “We can more readily identify vessel opportunities and stay a step ahead of the tightening supply chain with reliable availability and performance intelligence.”
The data tool allows for detailed comparisons of project metrics—including average installation days per turbine and per foundation—helping developers measure performance against industry benchmarks. Ocean Winds said Spinergie’s open data architecture also allows integration with internal datasets to create tailored project analyses.
“There is no room for guesswork in today’s offshore wind market,” said Fabien Scemama, Head of Client Success at Spinergie. “Developers need accurate vessel availability and performance benchmarking that they can rely on to make impactful decisions.”
Ocean Winds currently manages 17 secured offshore wind projects in eight countries. The company said the renewed collaboration with Spinergie is part of its broader strategy to optimise execution and reduce delays across its expanding offshore portfolio.
