Reuters Offshore & Floating Wind Europe 2023
IMCA’s Iain Grainger will be speaking at Europe’s most senior meeting for offshore and floating wind developers, Reuters’ Offshore & Floating Wind Europe 2023.
Europe’s offshore and floating wind sector is experiencing unstoppable growth. Industry giants are scaling up to deliver more projects at multi-gigawatt levels and capitalize on the multibillion-dollar market opportunity.
To achieve Europe’s 150GW target by 2030, we need to roll out an incredible 50GW of projects within the next two years. However, supply chain bottlenecks, aging infrastructure, and bureaucracy are all threats to industry growth and investor confidence. With $ billions in contracts ready to be unlocked, it’s crucial to act now and address these challenges.
Hosting every major developer, supplier, investor, and policy leader – this is where partnerships are formed, business-critical insights are shared, and the roadmap for long-term growth is laid out.
More details on IMCA’s involvement will be shared soon.
