Ralf Skowronnek on “Addressing Insurability in Floating Offshore Wind Early on Can Help Speed up Commercial Deployment”
Addressing Insurability in Floating Offshore Wind Early on Can Speed Up Commercial Deployment.
At the anticipated scale of growth, it is imperative that FOW technologies achieve commercial scale readiness and become bankable. However, bankability is only achievable once sufficient insurability of the technology is demonstrated.
As such, making sure that projects can obtain sufficient coverage by insurers should be a priority. Indeed, to achieve insurability means for FOW projects to have understood the uncertainties surrounding the technology, lowered the risk exposure, and lowered the probability of failure/damage. Reaching sufficient insurability will decrease the total cost of risk and levelized cost of energy, and finally secure the commercial growth of the technology for the long-term.
