K2 Management worked as owner’s engineer on the final phase of a vast renewable energy project in Vietnam, which has incorporated the development of the country’s largest salt production facility, powered by wind and solar. Commercial operation has begun at the 22-turbine wind farm in Ninh Thuan, a joint venture between AC..

Without a global set of health safety, environment, and quality regulations specific to renewable energy projects, standards can fluctuate depending on where in the world a project is. Some projects will comply with best-practice regulations and others will follow local standards and guidance, so this can lead to inconsistent..

One of Vietnam’s largest owner’s engineer agreements will cover the Kông Yang (175MW) and Cư An (175MW) projects K2 Management (K2M) has been appointed as owner’s engineer for two of TSV Investment’s onshore wind projects in Vietnam that will receive support from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)...

With the growing scale of wind farms, both onshore and offshore, there has been increased focus on wake, or turbine interaction, effects in recent years. Due to the size and multi-array nature of offshore wind farms, turbine interaction effects are typically one of the dominant impacts on the energy yield of these projects...

With each evolution of turbine technology, the trend is clear. Bigger turbine with bigger blades, bigger capacity and ultimately a bigger commercial benefit. However, there may come a point when going bigger isn’t commercially or economically viable and although it’s unclear when this might happen, it inspires some..

Turbine and substructure R&D disconnect must be overcome via increase in partnerships or manufacturer acquisition, or supply chain confidence will remain low. For floating wind technology to meaningfully contribute to the renewable energy mix in next decade there must be a significant standardization effort around..
