Technologies: Offshore Wind
Solas Energy provides senior offshore wind advisory services for emerging offshore markets.
We help governments, public agencies, regulators, market-enabling organizations, developers, and project sponsors move from offshore wind ambition, policy, and early opportunity assessment into practical work programs, procurement-ready scopes, technical readiness, and implementation pathways.
Our offshore wind capability combines Solas Energy’s renewable energy development, permitting, procurement, stakeholder engagement, Indigenous engagement, GIS/constraints, commercial strategy, and owner’s advisory experience with Netherlands-based offshore wind expertise in metocean, LiDAR, wind resource, measurement strategy, campaign design, and offshore implementation.
We support clients early, before major offshore technical programs are fully scoped or procured, helping define the right work, identify key risks, sequence decisions, and prepare for bankable implementation.

Offshore wind is still an emerging market in Canada, which means most clients come to us before a formal procurement process exists while policy, seabed rights, grid connection, and stakeholder engagement questions are still being worked out. We help governments and market-enabling organizations think through market design and readiness, and help developers and sponsors translate early opportunity into a defensible, procurement-ready technical and commercial position.
Combining our renewable energy development, permitting, and Indigenous engagement experience in Canada with Netherlands-based offshore wind technical expertise gives clients a team that understands both the North American regulatory and stakeholder landscape and the offshore-specific technical work — metocean and wind resource campaigns, measurement strategy, and implementation planning — that a project needs to move forward credibly.
Our offshore wind advisory work typically includes:
- Market readiness and early opportunity assessment
- Policy, regulatory, and procurement-scope advisory for governments and public agencies
- Metocean, LiDAR, and wind resource measurement campaign design
- Stakeholder and Indigenous engagement strategy
- GIS and constraints analysis
- Commercial strategy and owner’s advisory support

Offshore wind is an emerging opportunity in Canada, with policy, market design, and early project opportunities still developing in several regions. Solas Energy works with governments, public agencies, and developers at this early stage to help define the right work and prepare for eventual procurement.
Offshore wind projects require specialized technical work, including metocean and wind resource measurement campaigns, seabed and marine constraints analysis, and offshore-specific procurement and implementation planning, in addition to the permitting, stakeholder engagement, and commercial strategy work common to onshore projects.
We work with governments, public agencies, regulators, market-enabling organizations, developers, and project sponsors, most often in the early stages of market or project development before formal procurement processes are established.
Through our Netherlands-based offshore wind partnership, we bring expertise in metocean data, LiDAR-based wind resource measurement, measurement campaign design, and offshore implementation planning, combined with our North American renewable energy development and regulatory experience.
