Welcome to the Wind Power News Review – hosted by Windpower Monthly's senior reporter, Robyn White, and Windpower Monthly's reporter, Orlando Jenkinson – along with our regular panellists, Shashi Barla and Will Sheard.
This time, we discuss Siemens Gamesa’s first new order for its troubled 4.X turbine platform, following a pause in sales linked to technical defects. As the rebranded machines prepare for market re-entry, our experts discuss whether the platform can regain developer confidence.
In the UK, floating offshore wind takes a step forward as several gigawatt-scale projects in the Celtic Sea are awarded seabed rights. But can the supply chain scale up in time?
In the US, a new piece of legislation backed by President Donald Trump is raising concerns across the wind sector. Dubbed the “Big Beautiful Bill,” the policy shift has left many questioning the future trajectory of wind power in the country.
And finally, onshore wind farms in the UK are facing an unexpected challenge: a rise in copper theft. Could this be the beginning of a wider trend?
This episode was produced by Inga Marsden.
