Program day 1

Opening: Can electricity market cannibalisation be cured?

A renewable generation is on the rise. Market demand is met as the wind will always continue to blow. Yet, with market prices falling, is the offshore wind industry set to get caught in cannibalising its own investment? A kick-off to show the bigger picture within the industry.

The road up to 2023

How can the industry prepare for the long-term? Which steps will need to be taken to ensure future demand, regulations and energy agreements? This session will also focus on human capital issues.

Trial and triumph in bidding systems

Tenders and bidding are hot topics in the industry. The Netherlands have presented a solid case and many countries stand to follow suit. Where lie the challenges? Can cost reduction be met by taking important technological steps. What works in other countries? Questions to be answered in an interesting panel discussion.

Upcoming talent

A well-functioning industry requires not only experienced personnel, but also new, young blood – full of challenging ideas and innovations. Four short presentations will be held by students.

Program day 2

Future forecast: reading the map

What is the road for 2023 up to 2050 and beyond? Can the industry turn agreements into reality? Leading players from the industry offer their forecasts.

Oil, gas and wind: friend or foe

What will change in the cooperation between oil, gas and offshore wind in this new energy paradigm. More importantly, what’s in it for wind?

Space meets wind

Space technology meets offshore wind: how can these two industries work together to improve future offshore wind farms and applications?
