Featured Topics at Offshore WINDPOWER 2024

Creating a sustainable commercial framework

  • The only way to reach our country’s ambitious deployment goals is by developing a comprehensive and enduring set of procurement policies, regulations, financial and tax mechanisms, and infrastructure investments, plus enduring market demand that enables the long-term viability and growth of the offshore wind sector.
  • Sessions at Offshore WINDPOWER will show the industry working together with federal, state and local governments to create an environment that fosters investment, innovation, and growth while ensuring long-term commercial viability.

Providing a predictable efficient permitting framework

  • As more projects enter the pipeline, it is critical that project permitting processes become more streamlined, standardized, and consistent to ensure swift project progress towards construction. Sessions at Offshore WINDPOWER will bring government leaders at the helm of permitting processes to the room with project developers to facilitate conversation and collaboration around this crucial topic.

Building public support

  • Public support is a key enabler for the successful deployment and expansion of offshore wind, influencing every stage from planning and approval to construction and operation, and our industry is bringing considerable investments and benefits to communities around the nation. Sessions at Offshore WINDPOWER will discuss success and lessons learned as we work together to grow support for the industry within key stakeholder groups and better communicate the environmental and economic benefits of this technology.
