Offshore supply chain: a bottleneck for the deployment ?
Turbine installation vessels: at least 5 more needed with higher lifting capacity and faster installation procedure (from 2 down to 1.5 @180 d/a)
Similar bottleneck for foundation installation (take foundation on barge?)
Cable and substation installation capacity
Cable supply: few suppliers with long lead times (high prices)
Trained divers and diving equipment
Ports: storage capacity, quay strength, water depth, access, tidal restrictions…
Competition with offshore oil and gas industry (high prices)
