Did you catch this week's Uptime podcast?
We lead with a run-down from last week's Hamburg show.

We talked about robots (DRONES!), offshore technologies, and the fact that a lot of booths were offering free chocolate and drawings for Lego kits.

Listen, there was a lot more - catch the whole show here:

The crew discusses Hamburg takeaways, including the industry mood, inspection data, bigger blade risks, and OEM announcements.

⚡First power at Ecowende's Hollandse Kust West offshore wind farm.

The first turbines are spinning and power has begun to flow as installation continues off the coast of the Netherlands. Once complete, Hollandse Kust West will feature 52 of our V236-15.0 MW offshore turbines.

Three of the seven turbines fitted with a single red-painted blade are also now standing tall and will help test whether colour contrast can reduce bird collision risk.

We're proud to be working with Ecowende, a joint venture between Shell, Chubu, and Eneco.
