The Floating Offshore Wind Power Technology Research Association (FLOWRA) of Japan and Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore (BV) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore collaboration on technology development for float-ing offshore wind. Through this collaboration, FLOWRA and BV will assess opportunities to support the safe, reliable, and scalable development of floating offshore wind, with a particular focus on contributing to the growth of Japan’s offshore wind sector. The collaboration also aims to help reduce development risks and costs associated with floating offshore wind projects. This MoU reflects our shared commitment to technological innovation and risk reduction in floating offshore wind, and we are confident that it will make a significant contribution to strengthening international collaboration in the future. This makes BV an extremely important partner for the development of floating offshore wind technologies pursued by our association.
