Case Studies

Work that moves offshore wind and maritime innovation from idea to execution

A selection of engagements spanning commercialisation, due diligence, innovation delivery, market entry, and supply chain strategy.

Featured case studies

Technology scouting

Sturrock and Robson

Pelergy delivered a global technology scouting and intelligence programme across UAV, USV, and UUV ecosystems, designed to support strategic decision-making in offshore and adjacent sectors. We built and maintained a structured database of technologies, vendors, maturity signals, and deployment relevance, then translated this into a practical decision-support layer for leadership and investment planning.

Impact: The database was used to steer strategic investments, and the client continued to refer to the work Pelergy delivered as their internal “bible” for years afterwards.

Innovation competitions

Confidential offshore client

Pelergy designed and delivered an end-to-end underwater inspection innovation competition to help an offshore operator identify practical, near-term inspection solutions. We worked with the client team to define scope, convert operational pain points into challenge statements, and structure a process that brought credible suppliers into direct evaluation against real offshore requirements.

Impact: The programme generated a qualified shortlist of technologies with clear deployment potential, gave the client a stronger evidence base for pilot selection, and reduced time-to-decision by replacing fragmented supplier conversations with one structured assessment path.

Commercialisation

Offshore Transfer Devices

Pelergy supported Offshore Transfer Devices with commercialisation strategy for offshore transfer technology, translating technical capability into a clear market proposition. The work covered positioning, target customer prioritisation, buyer narrative development, and practical go-to-market planning aligned with offshore procurement and deployment realities.

Impact: This created a sharper commercial story, clearer market-entry priorities, and a more investable growth pathway from trials toward scaled market adoption.

Market entry

Perceptual Robotics

Pelergy worked with Perceptual Robotics on offshore wind market entry and partnership strategy, helping translate advanced inspection capability into an actionable commercial growth plan. We supported market prioritisation, stakeholder targeting, and partnership pathway design to improve traction in priority segments.

Impact: This delivered a clearer route to market, stronger partner alignment, and a practical sequence for commercial expansion in offshore wind.

Market intelligence

RWE

Pelergy delivered offshore wind geospatial assessment for Latvia to support strategic early-stage development decisions. The work combined geospatial analysis with market interpretation to identify where opportunity and constraint intersect.

Impact: The output provided location-led insight that improved planning quality and supported stronger opportunity prioritisation for next-step development activity.

Due diligence

Confidential infrastructure client

Pelergy provided technical-commercial due diligence support for a subsea services acquisition process. Our work focused on market positioning, capability fit, risk/opportunity mapping, and practical implications for post-acquisition execution.

Impact: The diligence outputs improved investment confidence and helped the client make a more informed transaction decision with clearer visibility on value creation levers and execution risks.

Investment readiness

SENSE Wind

Pelergy supported the development of an investment proposal for offshore wind growth, turning technical and market insight into a clear strategic narrative for investors and stakeholders. We helped articulate market need, solution fit, and commercial logic in a format suited to investment discussions.

Impact: The result was a stronger investor-facing proposition with improved clarity on growth pathway, strategic positioning, and value capture potential.

M&A support

Confidential Baltic portfolio owner

Pelergy delivered acquisition support for a Baltic offshore-related portfolio, combining market context, strategic fit assessment, and practical diligence insights. The work was designed to support high-quality buy-side decisions under real-world time constraints.

Impact: Our analysis strengthened decision quality by clarifying upside scenarios, highlighting key execution risks, and improving confidence around portfolio integration planning.

Programme delivery

OWGP

Pelergy supported the delivery of WEST and WEST+ programmes to accelerate offshore wind supply chain capability. Our role covered programme design support, delivery coordination, and stakeholder engagement to keep implementation outcome-focused.

Impact: The programmes benefited from clearer execution structure, stronger alignment between participants, and more consistent delivery quality across workstreams.

Supply chain strategy

EnBW / bp

Pelergy prepared a supply chain development statement to support offshore wind planning and market engagement. The work connected project requirements with regional capability realities to identify practical development priorities.

Impact: The statement provided evidence-based recommendations to improve supply chain readiness and align commercial intent with executable local capability growth.

Innovation exchange

InnovateUK Business Connect

Pelergy designed and delivered an offshore wind innovation exchange format to connect problem owners with solution providers in a more targeted way. The programme design focused on relevance, quality of matching, and follow-through into practical next steps.

Impact: The approach improved engagement quality and reduced friction in innovation matchmaking, creating a repeatable model for future exchange activity.

Innovation competitions

InnovateUK Business Connect

Pelergy developed and delivered a blade repurposing challenge competition to surface credible circular-economy opportunities. We structured the challenge process to balance ambition with deployment realism and commercial viability.

Impact: The competition produced high-quality solution options and a clearer progression route from challenge outputs into pilot and implementation discussions.

Programme design

InnovateUK Business Connect

Pelergy designed the integration model between Launch Academy and innovation challenge pathways, creating smoother transitions between programme stages and participant support points.

Impact: This enabled a more coherent participant journey with clearer decision gates, stronger continuity, and better operational handovers between teams.

Market entry

Aerones

Pelergy supported Aerones with market entry and partnership strategy to expand offshore wind commercial opportunities. We focused on practical routes to demand, partner ecosystem fit, and sequencing for scalable growth.

Impact: The work clarified target pathways, improved partner engagement focus, and strengthened confidence in market expansion planning.

Programme design & delivery

OCEANTIC

Pelergy designed and delivered the MOWMEC programme to enable stronger collaboration across offshore wind and maritime stakeholders. The programme architecture was built to convert discussion into coordinated, actionable outcomes.

Impact: Delivery outcomes included stronger cross-sector engagement, clearer programme structure, and improved implementation momentum across participating organisations.

Supply chain analysis

OWIC

Pelergy delivered Supply Chain Capability Analysis (SCCA) to map strengths, identify capability gaps, and define practical development priorities for offshore wind participation.

Impact: The analysis translated complex capability data into clear action points, helping stakeholders focus investment and development effort where it would have the highest strategic impact.

Data products

RWE

Pelergy developed a supply chain database framework to improve structure, transparency, and decision speed in supplier engagement and sourcing activity.
