Aberdeen-based Fennex was presented with the award for Outstanding SME, sponsored by Scottish Enterprise, at the Scottish Renewables Green Energy Awards 2025.
Fennex headed a highly competitive category, where it was recognised for leading the AI revolution in offshore wind. By turning bold ideas into real-world solutions, Fennex is helping to position Scotland at the forefront of innovation in renewable energy and high-risk operational excellence.
Fennex’s global impact was acknowledged earlier this year when it received the prestigious King’s Award for Enterprise: International Trade (2025) for exporting AI-powered safety solutions now used across offshore operations worldwide — from the UK to the Gulf of Mexico.
Accepting the award, Fennex Strategic Director and co-founder Nassima Brown said: "This is the first year we have entered the Green Energy Awards, and although Fennex was originally deeply rooted in the oil and gas sector, where we successfully pioneered cloud-based, data-driven safety solutions delivering real-time visibility, predictive analytics, and intelligent automation, we wanted to transition into renewables and make a meaningful contribution to this important energy sector.
"We developed WindSafe™, the first AI-powered safety assurance platform tailored to the sector, to address a critical gap in how offshore wind projects manage risk, safety, and assurance. We are grateful for the strong support we have received from ORE Catapult, AREG, and ETZ. With their help, and through direct collaboration with developers, we secured WindSafe’s first pilot across four major floating offshore wind projects in Scotland, including with BlueFloat Energy and Ørsted (Nadara). This deployment marks a shift in how safety and assurance are managed in offshore wind, showing how AI can reduce risk and accelerate digital transformation across the sector. Our ambition is to double the size of the company in the next three years, and renewables has a key role to play in helping us achieve that aim."
Founded in 2016, Fennex is a fast-growing, multi-award-winning AI digital technology company, successfully accelerating the innovative automation and digital transformation of health and safety management within the UK’s high-hazard energy sector. Its entrepreneurial spirit is now driving industry-first innovation in offshore wind, transforming safety assurance with intelligent, predictive technologies and positioning Scotland as a global leader in clean energy and AI innovation.
