(Baltimore, Md., U.S.) has published its for offshore wind energy events. The lineup includes new network events focused on key industry sectors, from ports and vessels to grid and transmission. Other in-person events include an Offshore Wind Business Forum as part of the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Global Clean Energy Action Forum and the second annual Ventus Gala, a premier celebration of offshore wind.
A preview of the fall 2022 network events (from September to December 2022) are as follows:
Sept. 26-30, 2022 (Hamburg, Germany)
The Business Network is leading a delegation of U.S. companies, organizations and government officials to Hamburg, Germany, as part of its Global Gateway program, which is supported by the U.S. Department of Commerce. Participants will attend WindEnergy Hamburg, where they will have the opportunity to meet with international companies to discuss how to export their products/services abroad as well as find ways to partner in order to grow the U.S. supply chain. Network CEO Liz Burdock will speak to World Bank Group attendees on Monday, followed by a co-hosted Networking Reception. As part of WindEnergy Hamburg on Wednesday, she will address media at a press briefing organized by German-based Network for Offshore Wind () and speak to German and U.S. companies on cross collaboration and supply chain needs. On Thursday, Melinda Skea, the Network’s vice president of public affairs will lead a panel discussion: “Spotlight Market – USA.”
Nov. 9-10, 2022 (Charleston, S.C., U.S.)
Connecting 30 GW of wind energy to the electric grid is one of the biggest challenges — and supply chain opportunities — facing the U.S. offshore wind industry. The Summit will address topics such as subsea cable installation, shared grid ownership, underwater mapping, cable landings and shoreside substations are a few of the infrastructure requirements needed to realize the federal 2030 energy goal.
