Natural Power says its new North American hub will be a center of excellence for consultancy services and product support across the company’s range of renewable energy offerings.

Jim Adams, President of North American Operations, says: “There is huge potential for the North American renewables industry, particularly in onshore and offshore wind. Natural Power has been active in North America for over five years and provides industry leading product innovations such as complex flow modeling to ensure new projects perform to expectations, due diligence to support project investment, and ZephIR lidar to efficiently validating models and provide bankable wind energy assessments.

“Additionally, drawing upon our extensive experience in providing full life-cycle services to Europe’s offshore wind, wave and tidal industries, we have the unique ability to bring very applied and seasoned products and services to North America’s blossoming offshore renewables industry leveraging many of the lessons learned in this rapidly growing market sector. With a dedicated North American hub we will better service both our consultancy customers but also our product customers who require local engineering, construction and operational support which we will now build at pace.”
