Ossian floating offshore wind farm has launched its brand at the official opening of its Glasgow office.
Stakeholders from the offshore wind and energy industry were invited to the project office of the floating wind scheme.
The reception was an opportunity for the partners behind Ossian Offshore Wind Farm Limited (Ossian) – SSE Renewables, Marubeni, CIP – to unveil the development’s new logo.
Designed by employee-owned creative consultancy Emperor, the new logo and brand are evocative of the project’s relationship with the sea and the historic series of books after which the site is named.
The Poems of Ossian depict the epic quests and battles of a third-century Scottish warrior leader, following his adventures across rolling seas.
Ossian senior project manager for partner SSE Renewables David Willson said: “Along with our partners, we wanted a brand that reflected our innovative outlook and the scale of our ambition.
“We’re very happy with the result and hope that as we continue our journey towards building one of the world’s biggest floating wind farms, our branding becomes instantly recognisable.”
President and chief executive from Marubeni Europower Tomoki Nishino added: “We are proud of our international partnership and the experience and expertise that each company brings to the Ossian project.
“It has been a wonderful opportunity to connect with industry peers and project stakeholders; a day which marks an early milestone on our way to completion of a world-class renewables energy asset.”
Ossian development lead Holly Cartwright, from CIP, said: “Along with our project partners, we’re delighted to showcase our new brand and to officially open the Ossian project office.
“We are ready for the challenge ahead of us and look forward to welcoming stakeholders and suppliers to Glasgow, to progressing Ossian towards completion, operation and ultimately to playing an integral role on the journey to net zero.”
