SUMMARY:NOF Energi Coast Regional Supply Chain Showcase
DESCRIPTION:Showcasing the very best of North East England’s offshore wind industry\, this is your opportunity to explore the region’s innovative strengths and global knowledge\, with a focus on local projects\, innovation\, skills and supply chain capabilities and opportunities. \nBe part of a rapidly advancing industry\, in a key area for UK offshore wind developments. \nOffshore wind projects are only as strong as the supply chains behind them. UK offshore wind farms are among the largest in the world and North East England is fortunate to have some significant projects in operation and under construction. \nThe region is home to Dogger Bank Wind Farm\, Sofia Offshore Wind Farm\, Teesside Wind Farm\, Blyth Offshore Demonstrator Wind Farm and their respective developers of Equinor\, SSE Renewables\, Vargronn\, RWE\, Masdar and EDF Power Solutions. \nFollowing the recent allocation round (AR7) future regional projects that are being developed are Dogger Bank South (East and West). The projects under construction will see hundreds of turbines installed\, with massive monopiles\, jackets\, blades\, cables\, vessels and many more opportunities across the supply chain. \nNorth East England has a strong focus and commitment to offshore wind with the sector earmarked for potential future growth. \nFollowing the largest offshore wind auction in Europe to date\, and with record capacity awarded in AR7 (8.4 GW) this signals an acceleration of projects leading to supply chain opportunities. \nOpportunities will include both fixed bottom developments (circa 8.2 GW) and floating offshore wind (circa 200 MW)\, with NOF and Energi Coast excited for the future of the industry in this region\, especially bearing in mind our central geography location on the East Coast making us an ideal choice for North Sea projects. \nOne of the very supportive Developers on the Energi Coast Leadership Group\, RWE emerged as the dominant winner\, securing circa 6.9 GW of capacity in AR7\, this included development of Dogger Bank South (East & West)\, Norfolk Vanguard (East & West) plus Awel y Môr. \nAs North East England plans to move further into deeper waters for offshore wind\, we expect the supply chain will benefit from an industry which is on the move. \nThis is North East England. \n\n\nRaise your profile by exhibiting\, make your business visible\, stand out on the day and firm up your position as a supply chain leader. If you really want to stand out\, consider sponsoring the event and being part of the conversation.
