Wind energy – digital building monitoring should make offshore plants more efficient

Jörss — Blunck — Ordemann GmbH (JBO) is partner with the BAM and further industry leaders to develop smart and software based inspection and maintenance strategies for offshore wind farms as one of the scopes within “DiMoWind-Inspect” research project.

The project, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, aims to predict and plan offshore repairs more cost-effectively. It is no secret that offshore wind energy plays a decisive role in Germany’s goal for climate neutrality, and the joint project aims to make periodic tests simpler and more efficient at the same time to support Germany’s climate neutrality goal.

JBO brings its diverse BIM (Building Information Modeling) experience from its onshore projects offshore to support the digitalization of inspection and maintenance for offshore wind farms.

Sea Ice Is Back in the Baltic Sea

Sea ice is not gone from the southern Baltic Sea as many have thought in the recent years. The strong 2025/2026 winter season shows that multiple offshore wind farm locations can actually be affected by sea ice, as can be seen on daily-published FMI ice charts in comparison with maps of the existing and planed…

JBO Welcomes the Offshore Wind Investment Pact: A Necessary Step for the North Sea

Europe’s offshore wind sector is under pressure. Rising costs, complex projects and long approval processes are slowing momentum in the North Sea. JBO therefore welcomes the Offshore Wind Investment Pact, signed at the North Sea Summit in Hamburg. It shows that governments recognise the need for coordinated action and a long term commitment to…
