Macquarie Asset Management, through its fully owned offshore wind unit, Corio Generation, is making a fantastic investment. 50 billion investment in offshore wind over the next seven years. Corio generation, along with partners like TotalEnergies plans to invest in markets, including New York, New Jersey, Scotland, England, Taiwan, and Ireland.
Phil, they've hit all the hotspots for offshore wind, but putting 50 billion into that marketplace is massive.
Philip Totaro: Yeah. And keep in mind that, we're talking about a market that is likely to be several trillion dollars over the next five to seven years. They're certainly doing their part but also keep in mind that Corio has only really existed, obviously backed by Macquarie Group, but has only really existed for about the past year.
I think they just celebrated their one year anniversary very recently. They've come quite far in a short period of time with the deployment of the capital that they've got and the markets that they're looking at are absolutely, the places You want to be, now that the U S has gotten through most of its nonsense and we're getting back on track this is a good market to be in Taiwan's relatively stable.
There's a few kind of concerning signals out of there. But for the most part, that's going to still continue to grow and then England and Ireland are absolutely growth markets with a huge pipeline of projects in both those countries.
Joel Saxum: 50 billion over the next seven years is their plan.
Right now, and correct me if I'm wrong, Phil, but a gigawatt offshore wind farm, fixed bottom, costs between 3 and 5 billion to build, probably about 4 billion. Does that sound about right?
Philip Totaro: CapEx costs on an offshore fixed bottom is probably somewhere between 2. 5 and 3 million per megawatt. You can, But yeah, your typical sized project at this point, if it's around a gigawatt in size you're talking about, 3 billion.
Joel Saxum: Okay, so we're looking at 15 gigawatts of generation that they could get installed with that 50 billion or something around that. That's huge. That's that will help some countries in some areas hit some generation goals for offshore wind, definitely. And another one to mention here as well, we mentioned on the podcast the other day, but Onyx Insight recently purchased by Macri as a whole.
They're also bringing in advanced analytics and tools to the Wind farms that they're installing.
Allen Hall: The Scottish Offshore Wind Energy Council added seven new projects, including a Mingyang facility, to the Stage 2 Strategic Investment Model list, which aligns supply chain with developers plans for the ScotWind leasing round.
