Massive offshore wind expo announced
The first ever joint offshore wind conference organised by EWEA, the European Wind Energy Association, and RenewableUK has been announced. Offshore Wind Energy 2017 will take place in London between 6th and 8th June 2017, and will be instead of the annual event which RenewableUK holds and the biannual EWEA Offshore event.
Offshore Wind Energy 2017 is expected to attract up to 12,000 wind industry players to the UK, with 70% of delegates expected to come from outside the UK. It is expected to be the world’s largest offshore wind energy conference and exhibition.
Commenting on the announcement, Maria McCaffery, Chief Executive of RenewableUK said: “We are delighted that Offshore Wind Energy 2017 is coming to London. As the UK is the world-leader in the offshore wind industry, it makes sense for RenewableUK and EWEA to collaborate on this first-of-a-kind joint event.” The announcement was made in March at EWEA Offshore 2015 in Copenhagen.
