WindSCORE project develops holistic evaluation framework for offshore wind in Europe
- Category: Product News
Europe’s offshore wind sector is facing growing complexity as tender designs evolve, new technologies emerge and projects move into more challenging locations. At the same time, environmental impacts and social acceptance are becoming increasingly important. A comprehensive and standardised evaluation system that brings these factors together is currently lacking. The WindSCORE research project, launched in December 2025, aims to address this gap by developing a scientifically based 360-degree evaluation toolbox for offshore wind projects over the next three years. The system is intended to support investors, authorities and other stakeholders by combining economic, technical, sustainability-related and social criteria into a single assessment framework.
