All G+ members must provide their health and safety incident data for all their offshore wind farm sites across the world, from development to decommissioning stage.
The Energy Institute collects, analyses and publishes incident data, demonstrating:
- G+ leadership through the development of an evidence-based work programme.
- An understanding and awareness of the health and safety issues, which form the basis for G+ member operations and stakeholder engagement.
- A clear desire to improve the safety performance of G+ members and their contractors through the collection, analysis and sharing of health and safety information on hazards.
The latest health and safety statistics report can be found below. Hard copies of any of the G+ documents can be ordered through the Energy Institute: https://publishing.energyinst.org/topics/renewables
