Recorded in Glasgow during the Scottish Renewables Offshore Wind Conference, Úna Brosnan and John McCaskill reflect on two days of industry conversation, announcements, and shifting sentiment at a pivotal moment for offshore wind.

They discuss the outcome of AR7, renewed confidence across the supply chain, and the policy and investment signals shaping the UK’s renewable energy trajectory. The conversation explores communication, investor certainty, Contracts for Difference evolution, and the importance of continuity as the sector looks toward AR8 and beyond.

Widening the lens, they consider emerging market momentum, US political uncertainty, and Europe’s growing focus on energy security - highlighting how geopolitics is increasingly intertwined with the energy transition.

A grounded, realistic reflection on progress, pressure, and cautious optimism at the start of 2026.
