There is a lot of acoustic mitigation in place nowadays when using monopiles. And the easy locations are taken, so other foundation types (jacket platforms, floating wind turbines) are also in play. Grand generalizations like "we should build them on land only" sort of fall apart in the real world.

That is somewhat unsurprising since it is a rebranding of the Dutch iDeal system which now is being rolled out elsewhere in the EU.

True, and I also did not mean to let better be the enemy of good. Just that we're not in the clear yet.

The article omits that Wero is running on top of AWS. So still the same problem, just slightly lower in the stack.
