"A short video on the creative development of a breakthrough new high-density fiber optic panel, project named: Iridium, which is now being released under the name 'Osmium'; highlighting the benefits of Design and Engineering departments working collaboratively to achieve technical innovations."

Historically, wind technology has been seen on land and near offshore locations. Restrictions, such as prohibitively expensive offshore foundations to support wind turbines larger than 20 meters, may be viewed as stunting potential market growth. Now, new technology based on floating turbines may enable deeper offshore placement. The view mentioned with this news is that pushing turbines further out to sea will equalise the issue of aesthetics. However, the real issue here is can this technology deliver a useful and economic addition to the grid.
